My process

Built with

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

What I learned

I was rusty as I hadn't touched html/css/javascript in 7 months. Solution came together fairly quickly.

As usual I focused on mobile first, and then added some minor tweaks for desktop. (Specifically the "Learn More" button is lower on the desktop version)

I spent a little time chasing box widths, mainly it was paragraph width. Honestly I should have simply stayed with the 25ch used for the mobile version rather than having 23.15ch for the desktop.

Continued development

Continue working through the newbie projects that I have, with an eye to trying to use grid rather than flexbox.
