What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I'm proud of the fact, I could reproduce this without the design files. Although it might not be pixel perfect, I believe I'm within the ball park. I really wanted to pay for the PRO subscription, but I couldn't afford it at the moment despite the purchasing parity discount. Next time, I would definitely love to use the figma files. I just have a knack for perfection.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Working without the design files was quite tedious to say the least. I often had to guess the dimensions as I went along. To overcome these challenges, I sort for help to pay the subscription, but I couldn't find any so I utilized an online color picker to help me pick the colors and did my best to guess the sizings.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

I'm not sure at the moment, just an honest review of my work would be great.

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I am most proud of my ability to make this blog preview card responsive on different screen sizes using the CSS media queries. Next time, I plan to use more CSS combinators than individual classes.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I initially designed for desktop first so I had little issues transforming the card to a mobile friendly version. To solve this, I changed the main CSS rules to address a mobile device first then added a media query for larger screens like tablets and desktops. I also utilized dynamic sizing of the card.

I do love an honest feedback of the quality/structure of my codes (both HTML & CSS). Does the HTML elements used tell the true meaning of the content? Does the CSS naming adopted follow best practices and help others easily understand the code?

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

In this project, I practiced using CSS flexbox to align items on a page. Prior to this time, this challenge was a daunting one because I lacked the knowledge of how to position elements vertically. However, over the past few weeks I have gained mastery through repeated use of flexbox in my projects. Next time, I'd love to fix the attribution to the bottom of the page and possibly change the component layout depending on the screen size. I also love to attempt using CSS logical properties and values instead of absolute values.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Initially, I had some issues with the vertical placement of the component. To solve this challenge, I added a height of 100vh to the parent element so that the flex item can have a reference to work with.

I have read a little about CSS logical properties on MDN but I still don't get it. How can we translate absolute values given by designers to logical properties? Is there a ratio or something?
