Points of pride:

  • Mobile-First approach!
  • link to Google Maps works!
  • phone number is clickable! (number has been modified in the markup, so that it's not a valid number)
  • vw used for font-size! (except at final viewport due to need to "freeze" font-size, so would not grow unreasonably large with increasing viewports)
  • Flexbox!
  • clean, organized Markup and CSS!
  • two Google Fonts used
  • aimed for styling consistency; for example, to add cushion between sections, always used margin-bottom
  • did best to take advantage of cascade
  • did best to NOT duplicate style declarations in the media queries unless a style change was being made
  • learned a lot about responsive images (much more to learn!)
  • invested a lot of time and research in getting hero section and hero textbox to be responsive; happy with result!

Areas that need improvement:

  • hero image loads much too slowly
  • need to increase knowledge of images, especially how to manipulate vertical sizing and how to implement srcset
  • unsure of how to use srcset with Flexbox
  • for the largest viewport (mostly fluid design pattern), want to allow outer margins to be slightly darker color

Thank you for your time. I welcome all feedback - minor and major!
