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
• Receive an error message when the form is submitted if:
  • The Email address field is empty should show "Oops! Please add your email"
  • The email is not formatted correctly should show "Oops! Please check your email"

Screenshot

Add a screenshot of your solution. The easiest way to do this is to use Firefox to view your project, right-click the page and select "Take a Screenshot". You can choose either a full-height screenshot or a cropped one based on how long the page is. If it's very long, it might be best to crop it.

Alternatively, you can use a tool like FireShot to take the screenshot. FireShot has a free option, so you don't need to purchase it.

Then crop/optimize/edit your image however you like, add it to your project, and update the file path in the image above.

Note: Delete this note and the paragraphs above when you add your screenshot. If you prefer not to add a screenshot, feel free to remove this entire section.

What I learned

The approach to this was more difficult than any of the Frontend Mentor challenges that I had approached so far. Basically till now I've only approached the newbie free projects (although with a mixture of access to the figma design file).

Now I have to think about Mobile, Tablet, and Desktop; rather than just Mobile and Desktop.

Also interesting was working without a style guide document + figma doc. This time I just had the figma document, so I had to make more notes for myself. Interesting particularly because it wasn't clear from the design section what weights of Chivo I needed.

To see how you can add code snippets, see below:

<h1>Some HTML code I'm proud of</h1>

.proud-of-this-css {
  color: papayawhip;
}

const proudOfThisFunc = () => {
  console.log('🎉')
}

If you want more help with writing markdown, we'd recommend checking out The Markdown Guide to learn more.

Useful resources

• Example resource 1 - This helped me for XYZ reason. I really liked this pattern and will use it going forward.
• Example resource 2 - This is an amazing article which helped me finally understand XYZ. I'd recommend it to anyone still learning this concept.

Note: Delete this note and replace the list above with resources that helped you during the challenge. These could come in handy for anyone viewing your solution or for yourself when you look back on this project in the future.
