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

I think the way to approach the challenge is good, I mean that the mobile-first workflow helps a lot of in gradually adding just the necessary styles and preventing it from becoming a huge css file. For the next time I will try to declare more utilities classes because I think they are useful for larger projects.

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

The naming of the classes for HTML tags is always a problem for me, because I feel like I need to return to HTML file a lot of times just to remember the names, so I just declared the names based of what I see on the card.

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

I think that I need help on the images, because the document is always loading both, the desktop and the mobile images, I just declare a media query to display the desktop image and hide the mobile image on larger screens, but I don't think this is the right approach.

Hello @nesc11!

Your project looks great!

I have a suggestion about your code that might interest you:

📌 You can use the <picture> tag when you have different versions of the same image 🖼. Using the <picture> tag will help load the correct image to the user's device, saving bandwidth and improving performance.

Example:

<picture>
    <source media="(max-width: 460px)" srcset="{desktop image path here}">
    <img src="{mobile image path here}" alt="{alternative text here}">
</picture>

I hope this helps!

Other than that, excellent work!
