Responsive card layout using React,Tailwind CSS and Vite
Design comparison
Solution retrospective
I am very proud that I have been post poning to attempt the challenge but I have done the challenge successfully within the shortest time I could believe.I have used a div for the card component but next time I will use a styed component from either Material UI or ShadCN so that I take less time coding.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?I experienced a challenge getting the actual size of the card & image height and width.I overcame by really analyzing the mobile and desktop design.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?Some help getting the actual sizes of the images from the design will be appreciated.

Hi @matthewkuria,
Just for fun, I’ll tell you about another way to center a div using Tailwind classes: set the parent div with relative and the child div with absolute. Then, apply top-1/2 and left-1/2 to the child, along with transform and -translate-x-1/2 -translate-y-1/2. While using flex with justify-center and items-center is generally better, this is still a useful technique!
I also noticed you’re using too many containers in React. You can avoid this by using fragments (<> </>) when a div isn’t necessary. Remember that both HTML, body, and #root can be styled directly, so extra containers are often unnecessary. For text inside a card, instead of using a div, you can simplify it by using flex flex-col to make your code cleaner.
Keep up the great work!
Best, Teodor

You can use figma to measure design images.
body { display: flex; flex-direction: column; justify-content: center; align-items: center; min-height: 100vh; } Try this to align(top-bottom) and justify(left-right) your project to the center. It applies to the parent component(body), don't forget about min-height. You can use grid instead of flex too(with some changes). Hope you found this comment helpful :)
