What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I am proud that I was able to use CSS Grid Display for the first time.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
I had a really hard time figuring out how to get the 3-column layout to mirror the design. Finally I with the help of MDN, I realized I needed to add a space to my grid-areas.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I appreciate any feedback, particularly on my use of css-grid.
What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I was able to tackle a few new concepts such as markers for individually highlighting bulletpoints (ul/ol) without affecting the following texts, how to use ::root and var() element for custom fonts/colors from the design file, and finally how to create a table within html.
Slow and steady but practice and engaging with the community is what made me learn more than the tutorials i've watched.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
I initially hit a stump when it came to constructing the table in the last bit and i thought i was supposed to use grid display and then i realised would be easier and logical to just create a table (used chatgpt to learn that).
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I feel my code is too long winded and i still haven't got the hang of using comments in my code? do you think it's best to start practicing that now or i shouldn't worry about it?
What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I'm proud of taking it one step at a time and figuring it out on my own as I went along, and just experimenting with things to see how my elements reacted. Next time, I would probably read the style guide md as I didn't realize the code for the variables was already in there, instead of reading from the figma and writing them out myself. But it did help me practice the syntax of doing so.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
The main challenge was making sure all elements had that spacing-200 around them that the figma showed, so that all elements look clean and neat in a column like fashion. I addressed this by realizing that for most elements besides the svg, it was just a matter of adding some spacing to the left of each element.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I'd like help with reducing the amount of css written. I feel like there was a cleaner way to space each element than adding margin-left: 1.5rem to every individual element. But i couldn't figure out how to do that in flexbox.
