Solution retrospective

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

When I initially looked at solving this it initially occurred to me to use a grid, although I wanted to see if I could get it right with flex box. It ended up being pretty simple to set up breakpoints to change only a few properties in order to get the layout to work in all 3 screen sizes.

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

I was hard time realizing that the tailwind classes for adjusting position in a container, switch the direction they work with depending on the main axis of the flex box. Some of them work with the main axis and some with the perpendicular axis.

I ended up finding some helpful info in the tailwind docs.

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

I'd like recommendations on how to improve the semantic html elements used throughout the page and components.

    Hi @ecarlste,

    I've reviewed your solution and would like to share my thoughts:

    • You're wrapping a <div> inside <main>, even though it's the only child. Consider removing it and applying the CSS classes directly to <main> to reduce unnecessary nesting.
    • The first <section> works fine, but you could use <hgroup> instead, as it represents the page's headings.
    • Each card in the second <section> could be an <article> rather than a <div>. Also, there’s quite a bit of <div> nesting inside the cards. You could simplify it, as many of these elements can stand on their own with some CSS adjustments.
    • Tailwind provides utility classes for styling, but it's built on top of CSS, which ultimately controls your layout. I'd recommend deepening your understanding of pure CSS—it will help you work effectively with any CSS library, not just Tailwind.

    Hope this helps!
