Solution retrospective


This is the first time I ever touched Tailwind CSS. The thing I love about it is that I still had control over how I styled my components through utility. Something that I really enjoyed is that I didn't have to constantly jump between JSX & CSS files. This made it feel like I was saving a bit of time during development.

I love how you can configure Tailwind. In this project, colours & fonts were given, which were easily included in the config file. One thing I had to get used to was putting all the breakpoints in the config file.

I was worried about how everything would look if I used tailwind, but while reading through the docs (https://tailwindcss.com/docs/utility-first), my worries were alleviated. Something I also really loved was Automatic class sorting with Prettier.

The last thing I had to adjust to, was learning how to develop in a mobile-first development workflow. It didn't really take time to adjust, especially considering how you can make websites responsive using Tailwind.

Although the current config file has different screens, colours & font-families, what was lacking was proper spacing & font sizes. This could probably be attributed to the fact that I didn't have access to the actual design file, but rather the images of the designs alone. So I had to approximate the sizes. Using opening the design images in Figma helped when trying to determine things, but it's not always accurate.

Hi ThaBeanBoy, how are you? I really liked the result of your project, but I have some tips that I think you will enjoy:

The links must have an aria-label or sr-only text that tells where the link navigates the user. For example: Visit our Facebook. For images, you should set aria-hidden=” true” to be ignored by screen readers and to avoid redundancy and repetition.

<html> element must have a lang attribute [click here](https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.3/html-has-lang?application=axeAPI)

I noticed that this image is appearing in higher resolutions, you probably didn't notice ahuahuahu

<img data-main-image="" style="opacity: 1;" sizes="(min-width: 375px) 375px, 100vw" decoding="async" loading="lazy" alt="curved background" src="/static/5f0b90e83abae7337bca43e2ee067cbe/c2ffb/bg-curve-mobile.svg" srcset="/static/5f0b90e83abae7337bca43e2ee067cbe/d3757/bg-curve-mobile.svg 94w,/static/5f0b90e83abae7337bca43e2ee067cbe/9b482/bg-curve-mobile.svg 188w,/static/5f0b90e83abae7337bca43e2ee067cbe/c2ffb/bg-curve-mobile.svg 375w">

The rest is great!

I hope it helps...
