What's your workflow to manage to do such a pixel-perfect solution?

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
Definitely proud of getting this project to look eerily similar to the original in under a hour. Being familiar with HTML and CSS through freeCodeCamp lessons allowed me to quickly know where to start and what to do. One thing that I would do differently is not spend so much time on one problem that I'm not able to implement.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
There was one B I G challenge that I encountered and sadly was not able to recreate. It being the slight box shadow under the card which I spent about 15 mins at the end of everything else trying to figure how to make it. It's very subtle and faint if you notice it. Even for the fate of humanity I wasn't able to overcome this problem. sigh.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
One problem I would like help with is understanding the parent and child relationship css has to its core with elements. I'm not so sure if I did it completely right but eventually I settled on using the margin property to get the div holding the card to the center of the page. Knowing how and where to set up the Display, Justify-content, Text- align properties to get the style on any given area of the webpage would motivate me more than David Goggins running everyday. The other advice I would like some pointers on is how to use a computer and how to use the internet, this is a problem that has puzzled me for centuries.

Well done on finishing it so fast! Your retrospective was fun to read.😄
I don't think it's a bad idea to take more time on stuff you're not acquainted with though. I started this journey with little knowledge of CSS & HTML, and it took me waaaay too long to accomplish my first challenge (well, it still takes me too much time... haha). The reason being I googled every single thing I didn't know. Of course if you're stuck on something for too long, it's better to move on and do what you know, then come back. Just like you did! So it's not a bad thing to do. :)
For shadows I recommend looking at examples, this is a good start. Search for ones that look close enough to your desired shadow, then tweak it as you please.
What helped me get of clearer view of how flexboxes work is Flexbox Froggy. It's fun to play and it is quite helpful. When I did the QR Code Component, my thought process was:
- I need to make the card sits exactly at the middle of the page.
- For that, my component that will contain the card must take 100% of my viewport's height. (Body or main in this case). One way is with
min-height: 100vh(width: 100%for width). - Now that my parent component fits the entire height. I can center all its children vertically (it didn't work as expected before, bc my body's height was the height of all its children!) + horizontally. Just as you did, I used
display: flex. justify-content: centerto align its children along the main-axis (here it is the x-axis because flex-direction is set torowby default).align-items: centerto align its child along the other axis.
At each step, I
inspect elementmy webpage to look at the boxes of each element.. So I know what I'm doing. It helps visualize stuff and realize that every elements are just little boxes with margins & paddings put inside/alongside one another.Hope my comment will be useful to you. I may have made some mistakes, so feel free to google it & experiment it on another challenges ! 😁

I feel so confused without a design draft. Should it be 1px more or 1px less? What is this color? It makes me too confused. Forget it. I am tired. I will destroy it.

I'm proud to have been able to do code the cards and make them looks close as the desing. I would like to do them better next time though.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I would like to know how to move the images to the right (I had to use a margin-left and I know that's probably not the correct way to do)

Hi, good job on your solution! It looks good. I'm amazed that it works with only flexboxes :)
Another way to put the image to the right would be :
- Give your
.cardadisplay: flexandflex-direction: columnproperty. - Since each child of the card is now on a single row, if you want to put the img on the far end of the row, you can style your
imgwithalign-self: flex-end. We use align-self to align the img horizontally because the main axis is now the y-axis (column). So the secondary axis is the horizontal one. The div that contains the img would be unnecessary as well.
Also you don't need to add a div for the top color of your cards, you can directly use the
border-topattribute.Marked as helpful

Good job on your first challenge! It looks almost identical to the original.

Well done! It looks so close to the original. I like how you use nth-child to style each card independently. Good semantics, I didn't even know that <blockquote> existed.

This is my first time officially using both Zustand and Framer Motion so I would like so insights to how I handled the global state and how can I make it better.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
Global State Management and Form Validations.
I solved the state problem with Zustand since it was fun and easy to use.
For form validations I was thinking about React Hook form but didnt want to add more complexity.
Another problem I had was validating the form before moving onto the next step. The form wasnt like the normal forms where you have a submit button to check, so I did an interceptor function(Thats what I call it but basically a wrapper) around the increment function so that before it moves on to the next step it validates the form and only when its correct it will go on to the next one.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
Global State Management and better structure of files and components

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
This was an interesting challenge overall. I'm most proud of how I was able to get the input with the extra text into a reuseable component where the developer can specify which side they want the text to be at(left/right). I would definitely use a more cleaner code approach next time.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
I was trying to get the form validations without using any extra state or Javascript code, but It seemed to be harder so I might just change to javascript instead for the validations. Also had a small issue with the enhanced inputs and validations.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I would like help with doing the validation manually as using HTML+CSS for the validation was a bit more challenging than expected. Also cleaning up the code and making it more accessible.

Well done, looks clean! :)
Seems like I'm not the only one who tried to factorize the inputs into a single one. Though your code is cleaner than mine. Your CSS solution for hidding/showing the error is interesting.
-
But maybe you could hide the error messages before the user submits the form? It would make the user experience a bit better I think. But you would need to add some javascript.
-
I'm not acquainted with VueJS so it's probably not true (though it doesn't seem so different from NextJS). It looks like you could do it with
@submitkeyword in your<form>if you correctly named your inputs (see Using Custom Validation . Actually, I did something quite similar here Line 103. My code is ugly, but the idea is the same I suppose. So in your@sumbit, before calling calculateMortage(), or inside, you could check if the infos are empty string/null. Then update yourformErrorsaccordingly. Finally, you will have to extract this array just like you did in MortgageResults. Well, I don't know if there's a simpler solution, or one that only uses HTML+CSS.
(I'm still trying to wrap my head around how you managed to change the radio button's color? It looks so good!!)
Happy coding! :)

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
This time I am more familiar with CSS, the coding process is smoother. In addition, this project is divided into two . The height of the first , which contains the form will vary when error message occur. Therefore, I used JavaScript to adjust the height of the second so that the height of the two are always the same.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
I used Cleave library to format input number (mortgage amount) and JavaScript regular expression to format the calculated value. However, I still cannot read the regular expression.

Your formula actually helped me thank you, good solution! The one I used previously couldn't compute large numbers.
