My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• CSS Grid
• Mobile-first workflow

What I learned

• How to add an image to an anchor tag
• How to display an icon overlay on hover/focus using the ::before and ::after pseudo-elements and the position: absolute property
• Use of the transition property for simple hover/focus animation
• That we can apply multiple box-shadow properties

Continued development

I'd like to learn more about the different CSS animations, as well as other use cases of pseudo-elements.

Useful resources

• [CSS box-shadow] from MDN (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box-shadow) - Has good explanation and examples of the box-shadow property
