All solutions

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

The challenges are getting easier and easier for me

I was able to create the entire layout and get it looking nice before I looked at the figma file to apply the styling

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

None really

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

For my last two projects I got great feedback and that has helped me

At this point, I feel like I have a firm grasp of the projects, but I am still enjoying building them

I have completely restarted the design of my personal site project with the knowledge I have learned

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

I was able to get it pretty close to the original design. I'm sure if I spent another hour or so I could refine it even more.

I was stuck in tutorial hell feeling I had no clue when it comes to CSS, but by actually doing the challenges I'm finding I have learned some techniques and even some theories.

The thing I'm proud of the most is actually starting to do it

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

This time I decided to use the Figma designs and it was very helpful, much easier trying the solution from the image

I just found it hard to understand if the figma dev-tools styling was inheriting styles and layout or if all my container elements must be flexboxes

I also tried to stick to the designs as much as possible but some of the values just didn't work for me

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

I still need to better understand what elements need to display: flex;

A part I'm struggling with is defining the height and width... how do you know what units to use? Should I always set height and width?

When do you let the child content determine the layout size?

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

I have decided not to use any frameworks such as Bootstrap or Tailwinds

Instead of trying to design it from scratch, I used the Figma designs this time, which made the experience a whole lot better.

Just from the past two challenges I feel like by doing rather than tutorial hell, I have learned actual concepts and techniques rather than just following along

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

I found it difficult to know if all my need to be displayed: flex. It looks like the Figma designs, but I'm not sure if that's correct.

I'm still finding it hard to figure out the units for sizing. Should the view be 100vh or set a px value? When and how to set width/height for elements... I'm sure I just need some more practice

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

I would like to know how you decide what divs need to be flexboxes and how you decide and what units you use to create the widths and heights or do you just add margins and let the parent decide the size of the child?
