Solution retrospective
๐ ๏ธ Built with:
-HTML ๐งพ -SASS ๐จ -BEM Notation ๐ ฑ๏ธ
Iโm most proud of reinforce good coding habits with the correct use of landmarks and semantic HTML. Also finding solutions to the problems I encountered with the deployment in Github Pages with Sass.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?I learned:
- To convert pixels to rems using
@function rem($pixel)
- How to have a responsive card container with min() function. If the second value is the smallest, 100% of the vh minus the total space on the sides is calculated.
.card {
width: min(u.rem(315), calc(100% - u.rem(22)));
margin-inline: auto;
}
- To self-host with @fontface (Google fonts).
- To center a component in the viewport with flex.
body {
/* center */
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
/* reset */
min-height: 100vh;
}
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I would like to know if there is a better way to center a component and if there are other best practices missing. Any feedback is highly appreciated ๐

Hi, @ChristinePena
Regarding your question about centering a component, there are a couple of alternative approaches you could try, though they aren't necessarily better:
- You can use CSS Grid instead of Flexbox on the body, dividing it into two rows. The first element will be centered, and the second one placed at the bottom:
body { display: grid; grid-template-rows: 1fr auto; place-items: center; }
- Another option is to set
position: relative
on the body andposition: absolute
on themain
tag while placing thefooter
at the bottom. Usetop
,left
, andtransform
to center themain
:
body { position: relative; } main { position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); } footer { position: absolute; left: 0; bottom: 0; width: 100%; text-align: center; }
Hope this helps!
