Couldn't do responsive part though, as I did not start with that in mind and because of that I did not plan for it and made the project difficult to make responsive.
I wish I could though. Really gutted to not doing since This was my time to practice what I've been learning

Nicely executed! The mobile menu looks kinda offset to the right, wight gives an awkward feeling, maybe you can try to align in center instead? πŸ˜„

Feedback: Design was amazing to try out frontend skills πŸ‘
Demo: zernonia-fe-challenge.vercel.app
Github: github.com/cloudcrawler/zernonia-f...
Tech-Stack: HTML, SCSS, NPM
Learning Outcome: I am newbie in frontend development, everything was a learning for me. I recently learned advance CSS concepts like SCSS. Overall it was a good exercise to test out learning vs implementation reality.

Nope it's not too late! Awesome job ya! The ground block image was squeezed in a smaller viewport, adding object-fit: cover; will ensure the image stay the same.

Responsive design still can improve a bit, I know it's particularly challenging for this challenge.

But all in all, good job! If you are ready, let's take on challenge #2. Much simpler and beautiful!

This is a great idea!

It's actually how I learned to code for the real world ➝ My manager at first agency 15 years ago would ask me to scour template sites for several good designs, and then I would be tasked with recreating/building on my own. It's crazy how much I learned, combined with one of Sitepoint's CSS fundamentals books.

I picked up more about front-end coding and set myself up for future success in those training exercises (he knew I was a junior designer fresh out of college) leaps beyond what school could have ever taught me. It was so valuable, in fact, that I intend to make it part of the onboarding process for any new or junior themers when I eventually become a manager.

Awesome activity you've laid the groundwork for here and hope to see it continue + thrive!

Awesome sharing! I couldn't agree with you more, rebuilding websites with good designs really level up my HTML and CSS skills as well.

I would definitely +1 on the idea of making building websites/components as part of the onboarding process, not only you can observe what's their capabilities in writing CSS, it also offers a great opportunity for them to expand their creativity!! 🀩
