What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
What I'm most proud of is taking on a difficult challenge, I felt like I needed to take on easier challenges but I was looking at this challenge and was thinking of the ways I could accomplish it, and here I am with it accomplished! I'm proud that I learned from my previous challenge and incorporated them onto this challenge, mainly the mobile-first workflow.
If I were to do anything differently next time it would be better planning of how my files would look like, because I had most of my CSS files into one CSS file previously which created complications, and it also made it complicated when I made a folder and put all my CSS files there, but once I organized all of it it helped my workflow for the better! Will be more organized for cleaner coding!
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
The challenges I encountered include:
- Not knowing how to retrieve and use data from JSON files.
- Trouble with CSS Flexbox, I would run into situations where it would look like how I wanted it, but had to trial and error some stuff in order to make it responsive, cause it would look good on a maximized browsers but when I would test the responsiveness, texts would be on top of each other.
I overcame them by:
- Researching on how others use data from JSON files and learning what I can do with it for the project at hand.
- By trial and error and research on CSS Flexbox, I was patient with learning how to deal with the situation and was happy to get a result that looked amazing.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
The areas in my project I would like help with would probably be the following:
- How to better use Grids and Flexbox, because there were times that it would look good on a maximized browsers but when I would test the responsiveness, texts would be on top of each other.
- JavaScript APIs and possibly Frameworks, because I originally intended to learn React for this project to broaden my knowledge and experience, but I was harder than I thought.
- Better CSS, maybe learning Tailwind CSS? I feel like I did a good job with the CSS with this but I feel like I could do more, especially more that would be good for an industry standard.
