What are we discovering this week?
Hey there,
This week we are bringing up libraries that you should definitely try in your next website. Some are to flare up your site and some are to bring a fresh feel.
I would really appreciate any comments about things I might have missed for a greater web experience.
From an amazing festival in the North to a refreshing tea in the west, and a great actor among us nothing stops India’s innovation and creativity.

A little about India, the food, the people and the culture
The Food
Lebu Chai
The signature lebu chai (lemon tea) from the streets of Kolkata is a signature blend of black tea with zesty lemon. Enriched with the goodness of Vitamin C, this tea is extremely refreshing and soothing. All you need to do is add leaves in the boiling water along with the lemon dash and it's done. Pair it up with Bengal's popular street food jhalmuri!
