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

Most proud: -It looks accurate

What would I do different: -After completion I realized I was suppose to include focus state as part of the challenge. I would include it next time

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
  1. Adding padding on one side of a circle shaped element, can ruin the perfect circle shape -In contrast, adding margin on one side of a element, will not affect circle shape
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Open to all feedback. I did try to do the last portion, as a grid section, but I failed and fixed it by just using flexbox. I think I'm confused. "grid-template-rows" I managed to get rows. But I'm not sure each element was divided in each row how intended.... As I write this, I'm thinking maybe I had to make all my elements share a class name, I just thought my elements would organize into each created row equal(1 , for each row).... hmmm or maybe I don't understand how to put content in each individual row... I'm not sure...

    Hello @BlissOnline, congratulations on the project, it turned out really well and almost identical to the proposed design. Well done, it looks great!

    Regarding your question about padding and margin, here's the thing: padding changes how the box will look because it adds internal spacing, pushing the items inside it. On the other hand, margin applies spacing outside the box, meaning it moves away from the external items.

    About your difficulty with the grid, I chose to redo that bottom part (the button section), and it worked correctly for me. Here's what I used:

    .linkContainer {
    display: grid;
    width: 100%;
    height: 15em;
    grid-template-rows: repeat(5, 1fr);
}

    I also noticed that you used some padding: 0% and margin: 0%, but from what I saw, they seemed to have no effect. So, I think it would be best to remove them.

    And a tip about HTML: focus on using more semantic HTML. I noticed that your HTML had many <div> elements, which doesn't affect the structure, but it does affect accessibility a lot. It's always good to have at least one <main>. You could replace your <div class="container"> with a <main> tag.

    If you have any questions, please ask below, and I'll try to help as best as possible.
