Design comparison
Solution retrospective
This was one where I definitely had to go back and adjust my classes and HTML tags a few times as I ended up realizing better ways to accomplish what I was trying to do partway through, especially with styling button-like anchors, but I feel like that helped me get a better grasp on how better to handle them from the start in the future. I also learned some nifty ways of making elements easier to resize during development and for responsiveness.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?I had to reconsider how implement button-styled anchors if I wanted the text to be styled on its own colored background, especially since I wanted a way to make it easier to adjust if the size of the buttons were to change, so I ended up with the following:
:root {
--button-height: 2.2rem;
}
.socials-main ul li a {
height: var(--button-height);
padding: calc(((var(--button-height) - 1em) / 2) - 0.125rem) 0;
}
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, but I had to do a good bit of improvising and adjusting as I implemented my styling, so if there's any areas where I could have done better with keeping the code clean/avoiding redundancies or anything else of that sort, I'd be happy to hear it!
