Seems to be going nicely so far. One thing I can suggest is to make sure not to expand too quickly. It's tempting but can lead to serious issues down the line (just in general, not that you're doing so).

Other than that, keep an eye on your public transport and change/improve as necessary - doing so will save you a lot of rebuilding. Traffic wise, a large central road with smaller streets branching out to various districts is usually the way to go. Also put your commercial and office zones near the bigger streets, housing on the smaller ones (can't really see how it works in your map so this is just a general suggestion).

Oh! I haven't played in a while and don't remember if this is a thing but see if there's an option to hide district policies before taking screenshots - all those icons add a lot of noise and make it harder to see the layout of certain spots.
