A Flask-based web application that provides an intuitive interface for converting between different units of measurement. The application supports conversions for length (e.g., meters to feet), weight (e.g., kilograms to pounds), and temperature (e.g., Celsius to Fahrenheit).

• Length Conversion: Convert between millimeters, centimeters, meters, kilometers, inches, feet, yards, and miles
• Weight Conversion: Convert between milligrams, grams, kilograms, ounces, and pounds
• Temperature Conversion: Convert between Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin
• User-Friendly Interface: Clean and responsive design with easy-to-use forms
• Real-Time Conversion: Instant results displayed after submission
• Mobile-Responsive: Works seamlessly on both desktop and mobile devices
