My process

Built with

What I learned

• Learnt to visualise the whole look of the site and setting the structure of what goes where before going in with CSS and making it look good.

• Learnt to design the site responsively and how to view in different viewports at the browser web developer tools.

• Learnt the importance of accessibility, things like setting the structure of HTML by adding sections like headers, main and footers.

• Most of all, I learnt a lot about positioning of elements by using flexbox and grid for a responsive site.

Continued development

• Need more pratice with using flexbox and grid to position elements.
