My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• CSS Grid

What I learned

Styling the images was a challenge. While the finished page looks close to the brief, I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it. However, I did learn a lot about multiple background images and the css background-image style plus it's associated background-position and background-size tags.

Hopefully my Semantic HTML is better this time too.

Useful resources

• W3 Schools
  • This helped me to understand the multiple property values for background-position, especially the x% y% syntax I ended up using for the shadow image on desktop resolution.
