- Around line 22-29: The useEffect adds a scroll listener but never initializes
scrolled, so call the handler once on mount and add the listener as passive;
specifically, inside the useEffect where handleScroll(), setScrolled, and
window.addEventListener("scroll", handleScroll) are used, invoke handleScroll()
immediately after defining it and change the addEventListener call to use {
passive: true } so the navbar state is correct on initial render and the scroll

Initialize scroll-derived state on mount.
scrolled is only set after the first scroll event, so loading a page at a non-zero scroll position renders the wrong navbar style initially. Call the handler once in the effect (and make the listener passive).
Suggested fix
useEffect( () => {
const handleScroll = () => {
setScrolled(window.scrollY>20);
};
- window.addEventListener("scroll",handleScroll);
- return () => window.removeEventListener("scroll",handleScroll);
+ handleScroll();
+ window.addEventListener("scroll", handleScroll, { passive: true });
+ return () => window.removeEventListener("scroll", handleScroll);
},[]);📝 Committable suggestion

Description
The current navbar is functional but lacks a modern and visually appealing design. The overall appearance feels basic and doesn't fully align with UI/UX standards used in modern web applications.
