What I learned

During the development process, I tried to apply the React approach as much as possible by breaking and parts of the component. I also decided to take props on some of the components to try and enable reusability of the component.

I had some difficulties when trying to do the hover state for the card image. Initially, I tried to solve this problem using React refs, but that did not work the way I intended. After some thought, I managed to solve the hover state for that part by using just CSS (well, TailwindCSS to be exact :D). I applied a hover state on the overlay and set the initial opacity to 0, mimicking the behaviour of "display: none;".

Here's the result for that part:

export function Card () {
  return (
    //...
    <div className="overflow-hidden rounded-xl h-72 w-72 xl:h-80 relative">
      <img
        src={nftImage}
        alt={`Image of the NFT ${nftName}`}
        className="object-cover w-full h-full"
      />
      <div className="opacity-0 hover:opacity-100 flex cursor-pointer transition-all duration-150 items-center justify-center h-full w-full absolute top-0 bg-primary-cyan/50">
        <img src={viewIcon} alt="" />
      </div>
  </div>
  //...);
}
