3-column preview card component

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

What I’m most proud of: I’m proud of completing the project and successfully creating a visually appealing design using HTML and CSS. This project helped me understand and practice grid layouts, media queries, and responsive design principles. I’m particularly happy with how the color schemes and button hover effects turned out, adding a clean and modern look to the design.

What I would do differently next time: Next time, I would focus on improving my CSS organization by using variables for colors and spacing to make the code more maintainable and scalable. Additionally, I would explore using CSS Flexbox in combination with Grid to achieve a more dynamic and flexible layout. I’d also like to implement accessibility features, such as proper ARIA roles and keyboard navigation support, to ensure the design is inclusive for all users.

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

Challenges I encountered: One major challenge was achieving a consistent layout across different screen sizes while eliminating unwanted spacing between grid items. It took some trial and error with the grid-template-columns property and fine-tuning the gap and padding values to achieve the desired alignment.

Another challenge was ensuring that the design remained responsive and visually balanced on smaller screens. Adapting the typography, button sizes, and padding dynamically for different breakpoints required careful adjustments and testing.

How I overcame them: I overcame these challenges by leveraging media queries and experimenting with various grid configurations. Setting specific breakpoints helped me create a layout that adjusted seamlessly for mobile, tablet, and desktop screens. I also referred to online resources and CSS documentation to better understand responsive design techniques. Finally, testing the layout on multiple devices and browsers ensured consistency and usability.

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

Areas I'd like help with:

Improving Responsiveness: While the layout adapts to different screen sizes, I’d appreciate feedback on optimizing the CSS for smaller screens (below 375px). Are there better ways to manage spacing and scaling without compromising readability or design?

Grid Optimization: Currently, the grid system works, but I’d like suggestions on improving or simplifying the implementation. Are there alternative techniques to manage alignment and spacing more effectively?

Code Structure: Are there any redundant or inefficient parts in my CSS that could be refactored for better performance and maintainability?

Design Enhancements: Do you have suggestions for improving the visual appeal, such as better color combinations, typography adjustments, or button styles?
