Newsletter Sign-up Form with Success Message

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

Proud of:

1. Implementing a robust email validation system that combines multiple approaches:
   • Regex pattern matching for basic format validation
   • Validator.js library for comprehensive email validation
   • Custom domain validation for common email providers
2. Creating a responsive design that works seamlessly across different screen sizes

Would do differently:

1. Add more comprehensive email validation rules to handle edge cases
2. Implement rate limiting to prevent form spam
3. Add loading states during form submission for better UX
4. Enhance accessibility features for better inclusivity

2. Responsive Design Implementation

   • Challenge: Ensuring the form looks good and functions well across all device sizes
   • Solution: Used a mobile-first approach with CSS Grid and Flexbox, implementing media queries for different breakpoints
