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

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.

My process

Built with

  • Semantic HTML5 markup

  • Flexbox
  • CSS Grid
  • Mobile-first workflow
  • React - JS library
  • Next.js - React framework
  • Styled Components - For styles

Note: These are just examples. Delete this note and replace the list above with your own choices

What I learned

To only be so beholden to the design. If I was in a position to I would be actively going to the designer to ask why certain padding areas are uneven (for instance the product card, the left/right padding is odd / unbalanced. Particularly around the price block, where for tablet and mobile its more indented)

Continued development
