Solution retrospective

I discovered I had to nest more <div>s than expected in order to get the desired layout through Flexbox. It felt like my HTML markup got more cluttered than it should that way, but it seemed to be the only way I could accomplish it. The hover overlay effect on the main image would have been a real challenge, but luckily a completed project from a Udemy course had a similar design, so I went back to that to refresh my memory and was able to pull it off. I didn't seem to need to create a mobile breakpoint because the size of the card was small enough to retain the same look on mobile.

    Hello there 👋. Congratulations on successfully completing the challenge! 🎉

    • I have other recommendations regarding your code that I believe will be of great interest to you.

    COMPONENT MEASUREMENTS 📐:

    • The width: 100% property for main element is not necessary. because it's a block level element which will take the full width of the page by default.
    • Use min-height: 100vh for main instead of height: 100vh. Setting the height: 100vh may result in the component being cut off on smaller screens.
    • For example; if we set height: 100vh then the main will have 100vh height no matter what. Even if the content spans more than 100vh of viewport.
    • But if we set min-height: 100vh then the main will start at 100vh, if the content pushes the main beyond 100vh it will continue growing. However if you have content that takes less than 100vh it will still take 100vh in space.

    .

    I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !

    Happy coding!

    I think overall you did a good job on structuring your HTML and didn't see no issue with the divs. One thing I did notice is that on your .avatar-section class you don't need to include flex-direction: row and justify-content: flex-start. Those are the default values when you use display: flex. Also, there are some situations where you use padding or margin to distance flex children where you could use gap property.
