## Overview

### The challenge

Users should be able to:

- View the optimal layout depending on their device's screen size
- See hover states for interactive elements

### Screenshot

Screenshots covering the mobile and desktop versions, and one showing the mobile version with active hover states on image, header, and name.

## My process

Set up CSS properties as if it could be themed. So in theory you can tweak the properties and the design will respond.

Then I tagged, and built the mobile version first.

For the desktop, I tweaked some of the properties, and then changed margins per design.

The trickiest part I found to do was the hover over the image preview. This I solved by using the `::after` pseudo element, and layering the background color and svg image on top of the preview image.

### Built with

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

### What I learned

That having an image inside of an `a` tag, means the `a` is 4px larger than expected. According to [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/3197613) stackoverflow answer it is because "The image is display: inline so it is treated like a character and sits on the baseline. The gap is caused by the space provided for the descender (which you find on letters like j, g, y and p).".

The suggest fix is to set `vertical-align: bottom;` for the `img`. Another option is to set the `img` to `display: block;` however other answers suggest that can break things.
