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

My have become faster in writing, and solve incoming problems with more ease.
I have continued to use plain notepad for writing. Not using helps of IDEs and more advanced text editors have made me to recall syntaxes more easily.
I took my time and planned my project and its layout before starting to write the code, it helped me to navigate through different phases of the projects more easily.
I used several new features in this projects including semantic elements, css custom properties, flexbox, applying borderbox to all elements, combination of attribute selector and asterisk wildcard.
I used rem length unit in almost every length parameter. It made setting length and sizes easier.

I 'll use SCSS in my next project.

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

Web responsiveness is still a challenge.

I used the following code for the main container, and solved the issue

width: 23.75rem;

max-width: 87.2vw;

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

I'd like to know how others solve the web responsiveness issues

Hey there!

Congrats on finishing the challenge! ✅

Your solution looks awesome!

📌 It's a good idea to use semantic HTML elements like <ul> and <li> for lists. This makes your code more accessible, maintainable, and meaningful.

Here's an example of how you can refactor your code:

After Refactoring

<ul class="list-container">
    <li><a href="#">Github</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Frontend Mentor</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">LinkedIn</a></li>
    ...
</ul>

Using <ul> and <li> makes your content structure clearer, which is better for screen readers and search engines. Plus, it follows best practices for HTML.

Hope this helps!

Keep up the great work!
