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

Managed to finish this project faster than the previous project that I made. Probably use a more variety of Rem and Px on certain places. Also have a better understanding of the Media Query, so I can use it on my code.

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

How to evenly space the bottom paragraph spaces on the grey text. Took me like 5 minutes to figure out how to be able to do it!

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

Should I be using media Query? Would px or rem be a better alternative than em when using it on imgs? While I understand that I should have use flexbox to make my project go in the center of the screen, I simply reused my past project code and alternate some things to finish faster.

    hi there! 👋👋

    You should avoid hard-coded values (pixels) most of the time. When you use these values you give up responsiveness(or you make it harder for yourself at least)..

    Typically you will increase the font-size property with @media queries. If you have hard-coded values all over your CSS, you need to modify every element's font-size . On the other hand, if you use rem -s all you need to do is changing the font-size in your CSS :root selector and all your elements will have a new size based on that value.

    I usually use em for padding and margin for text-based elements, since their margin usually based on their font-size , and again, when you change the font-size in :root these values will scale up as well without you touching them, making your job easier and your page maintainable.

    If you are not familiar with the :root selector it's usually used to set custom properties(others call them CSS variables ) that you can apply later.

    Hope this helped 🙏

    Good luck and happy coding! 💪
