Changing to a real server & a new TACTICAL UI

Added a new Dropdown menu to the TACTICAL page to filter threats by layers and fully changed the backend to the Hack Club Nest server!

The biggest friction this week was dealing with my old Render backend constantly going to sleep, which made the web app feel broken to new users. I finally set up my FastAPI app with PM2 so it stays awake 24/7.

On the frontend, I built a sleek new dropdown to change between Earthquakes, Floods, Storms, and Volcanoes. The hard part was getting the map layers to play nicely together, toggling the new NASA API’s kept overwriting my core 6,000+ wildfire array! I had to rewrite the logic to separate the Leaflet layers so the map can stays fast and doesn’t wipe your data when you switch views.

Right now, I am still trying to fix some bugs and improving the CO2 graph, I am also planning on updating my README.md to explain the new features (better).

THANK YOU FOR READING!
(I am almost at 20 hours of coding omg, I may need to add a special feature for when it happens. Any ideas or improvements are really appreciated!)
