What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
Enduring through and learning to implement the
display: flex properties (justify content, align-items). Took me a while to actually get it to work and wrap my head around it, specially within nested elements, but I managed.
I'd definitely start trying it out sooner next time - I spent a couple of hours at least trying to get elements to center using only margin, padding and position properties.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
Getting flex to work!
I overcame it by practicing with the wonderful Flexbox Froggy - an intuitive game, very useful as a starting point, as well as multiple practicing exercises at over at W3 schools CSS tutorial
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
My image is simply refusing to align with my div-background element, for reasons that I simply can't wrap my head around. Tried a lot of different margin, padding, positions values, played around with different align-items and justify-content values, but nothing worked.
I do admit I tried brute forcing it by setting values, running live-server and checking in the hopes of getting it to work, but, unfortunately enough, nothing worked, and I also recognize this is not the best way to actually understand things.
