What I learned

Importing fonts directly on CSS

import url('link');

Setting variables in CSS

::root {
    --var1: parameters;
    --var2: parameters;
}

I learned a lot about the use of Grid and Flex as well as how to format my layouts according to a screen size.

I would like to develop more using Flex and Grid.
