📘 Project Description

This project introduces a basic Solidity smart contract called SimpleCounter.
It’s designed for those who are new to blockchain and smart contract programming.
The contract has a simple purpose — to count upward every time it’s called.

---

⚙️ What It Does

• Starts with a counter initialized to zero.
• Allows anyone to increment the counter by calling a function.
• Lets users view the current count stored on the blockchain.
• Demonstrates how data persistence works in Ethereum smart contracts.

✨ Features

✅ Simple and Clean Code — Easy to read and understand for new Solidity developers.
✅ No Input Fields — Functions don’t require any arguments.
✅ Transparent Storage — The counter value is stored permanently on-chain.
✅ Public Access — Anyone can read or increment the counter.
