Solution retrospective


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

Learnt about bootstraps card class. Was able to visualise how the pieces went together before starting. It looks pretty close to the spec. Would like to have a better understanding about when to apply the grid system with bootstrap.

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

Struggled to get the card body layout looking spot on.

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

More ergonomic use of layouts, rather than fudging margins until it looks right, I feel I'm missing a big picture concept.

Hi, @StevenCodeson

I checked out your solution and had a couple thoughts:

  • When you mentioned "More ergonomic use of layouts," I wasn’t entirely sure what you meant. If you're referring to positioning child elements within a parent container, I'd recommend diving into Flexbox and CSS Grid. They're great tools for layout design.
  • Bootstrap is definitely a handy framework, but if you're serious about mastering frontend development, I'd suggest focusing on crafting layouts with pure CSS. Once you get comfortable with CSS, you'll have a much deeper understanding of frameworks like Bootstrap, Tailwind, Bulma, and others, as they are essentially built on top of CSS. This will also give you more flexibility when choosing frameworks.

Hope this helps!
