My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• Sass

What I learned

I learnt a lot of things while building this or making this project. When doing responsiveness, write your code from desktop to mobile or mobile to desktop(not my thing).

Use your ::after or ::before pseudo-elemnts when you get to where it is of neccessity because at the latter there might be diffulculties.

Continued development

In future projects, I will like to do more JavaScript.

Useful resources

• CodeSTACKr - This helped me for Flexbox and Sass.
