Design comparison
Solution retrospective
hello! im really happy with this one since i finished it in less than 3h Yeayy!!! \o/.
But i have a couple of questions regarding some issues that ive encountered.
- without this snippet
body { display: flex; flex-direction: column; justify-content: center; align-items: center; }
when i media query flex to transition from mobile to desktop, the cards begin split from one each other instead of staying together. why is this happening? and why the snippet above is making it work? im not quite sure i understand it completely.
and the second one is that if i use a container in order to border all my cards once like the snippet below
.container{ border-radius: 10px; overflow: hidden;
when i eventually reach the media query and have to flex the container, since the cards reside inside it, the border property stops working and my cards appear without border-radius, and because of that, i had to give border radius on cards 1/3 and include a media query for 1/3 again since the border radius shifts from when it goes column>row.
if anyone could give me an answer as to why these things are happening and how i could solve these issues i would be extremely grateful!!
cheers!

It's because main doesn't have a width. I added this and commented out the body.
main { width: fit-content; margin-inline: auto; }
Marked as helpful1@IldrimPosted almost 3 years ago@davidbdeath thank you very much for your response David,
so if i understood correctly, i needed a width on my main (or the container of the 3cards, whatever that container might had been) to contain the 3 cards from spreading and also provide the border that was not appearing. Which is being fixed with the width: fit-content.
And the margin-inline: auto is basically there to center the container on the x-axis or to be more precise on the text line orientation axis?
Honestly i hadn't seen these properties before and thank you very much for showing them to me, which prompted me to search them and expand my knowledge a bit more.
once again thank you very much for your help and the time you've spent in doing so ^^
cheers!
