In this blog, we'll dive into building a captivating hero section for your Instagram Threads clone using React and Tailwind CSS. The hero section is the first thing users see when they visit your app, so it's important to make a strong impression. By the end of this tutorial, you'll have a beautifully designed hero section that will entice users to explore your app further.
Prerequisites: Before we begin, make sure you have a basic understanding of React, JSX syntax, and Tailwind CSS.

Step 1. Set Background Image and Logo
Add a full-width, full-height flex container for the hero section. Set a background image using Tailwind CSS classes.
<div className="w-full max-h-screen items-start flex bg-background bg-center lg:bg-center bg-cover bg-no-repeat flex-col">
Note: Replace with bg-background : background image.

</div>
Step 3. Create QR Code Card Component
Inside the main container, there's a card and inside this card we add QR code image which we generate for our website. These are positioned using the Tailwind CSS classes for styling and layout.
<div className="bg-[#181818] w-[211px] rounded-xl border-[1px] border-gray-700 flex flex-col justify-between pb-4 ">
<div className="p-6">
<img src="Qr-code" alt="qr-code"/>
