This project was a fun and creative way to practice working with files, strings, and lists in Java. I especially enjoyed implementing the mirror logic and handling text formatting step by step. It really helped me understand how to manipulate characters and build structured console output.

Some of the section descriptions were extremely difficult for me to understand. I'm sure the problem is with me because the AI assistant seemed to get it without any issue.
