Describe your suggestion

I would like to propose an enhancement to the user interface of The Odin Project that focuses on improving the tracking of user progress and recent activity. Currently, users may find it challenging to monitor their advancement through the curriculum and to easily revisit recently accessed resources. Implementing a more intuitive progress tracking system that visually represents completed lessons and topics, along with a dedicated section for recent history, could significantly enhance the user experience. This would not only help users stay organized but also motivate them to continue their learning journey by providing a clear overview of their achievements. I believe that by integrating these features, The Odin Project can further empower its users to navigate their educational path more effectively.

This issue is much more about the site's features than the curriculum's content, so I've transferred it to this repo for further discussion.

Thanks for the suggestion @abisha-peter. There seems to be two different pitches within this:

1. "A more intuitive progress tracking system that visually represents completed lessons and topics"
2. "a dedicated section for recent history"

I think you'll get more traction if those were split into two issues/suggestions so they can be considered individually.
