My process

I created the structure around the text provided. I proceeded to work on the desktop version and then the mobile styles. I wanted to use sass styles with BEM naming convention. Mixins would help with responsive styling.

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox

What I learned

Creating web content without a framework is a bit more tedious and requires more effort to organize styles.

  @include respond-to(medium) {
    flex-direction: column-reverse;
    padding: 0;
    max-width: 375px;
    border-radius: 0;
    gap: 1em;
  }

const utils = {
  toggleClass: (targetClass, className, isAdd = false) => {
    for (const item of document.getElementsByClassName(targetClass)) {
      if (isAdd) {
        item.classList.add(className);
      }
      else {
        item.classList.remove(className);
      }
    }
  },
  setAttribute: (targetClass, attribute, value) => {
    for (const item of document.getElementsByClassName(targetClass)) {
      if (value === false) {
        item.removeAttribute(attribute);
      }
      else {
        item.setAttribute(attribute, value);
      }
    }
  }
}
