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

I got the positioning down, and had learned the use of flex box. I would need to look up and get the media queries portion down and practice that.

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

The part that was challenging was getting the whole element to be centered on the page but finally figured it out using fixed positioning in CSS.

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

Media queries, responsiveness of the page/component. I will have to do more research on that but any sort of help & feed back would be great. I still believe the font I used for some reason didn't work as I was trying to mimic it from the style guide, so feedback on that would be great too :)

Exceptional work! You’re showing great skill here. I’ve got a couple of minor suggestions that could make this stand out even more…

Using a <main> tag inside the <body> of your HTML is a best practice because it clearly identifies the main content of your page. This helps with accessibility and improves how search engines understand your content.

While px is useful for precise, fixed sizing, such as border-width, border-radius, inline-padding, and <img> sizes, it has limitations. Pixels don't scale well with user settings or adapt to different devices, which can negatively impact accessibility and responsiveness. For example, using px for font sizes can make text harder to read on some screens, Check this article why font-size must NEVER be in pixels. In contrast, relative units like rem and adjust based on the user’s preferences and device settings, making your design more flexible and accessible. Use px where exact sizing is needed, but prefer relative units for scalable layouts. If you want a deeper explanation watch this video by Kevin Powell CSS em and rem explained. Another great resource I found useful is this px to rem converter based on the default font-size of 16 pixel.

Using a full modern CSS reset is beneficial because it removes default browser styling, creating a consistent starting point for your design across all browsers. It helps avoid unexpected layout issues and makes your styles more predictable, ensuring a uniform appearance on different devices and platforms, check out this site for a Full modern reset

For future project, You could download and host your own fonts using @font-face improves website performance by reducing external requests, provides more control over font usage, ensures consistency across browsers, enhances offline availability, and avoids potential issues if third-party font services become unavailable.

I hope you’re finding this guidance useful! Keep refining your skills and tackling new challenges with confidence. You’re making great progress—stay motivated and keep coding with enthusiasm! 💻
