Responsive Four card feature using CSS Grid

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

I finally got to use CSS Grid for real in this project—and wow, it's powerful! I’m still wrapping my head around everything it can do, but even with what I know so far, it made laying things out so much easier.

While building the layout, I experimented with both:

• grid-template-columns / grid-template-rows
• grid-template-areas

Both worked really well, but I ended up using the latter:

.feature__nav {
    display: grid;
    gap: $space-lg;

    @media (min-width: 768px) {
        grid-template-areas: 
        "top top"
        "mid1 mid2"
        "bottom bottom";
    }
    @media (min-width: 1440px) {
        grid-template-areas: 
        "left mid1 right"
        "left mid2 right";
    }
}

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Honestly, this was the first challenge where everything just kind of made sense. I didn’t really struggle or get stuck—I was able to keep moving forward without overthinking things. It all felt really smooth.

The main challenge was figuring out how to use CSS Grid properly—it was my first time really using it in a meaningful way. I used @media queries to handle the layout switch, but I know there's so much more CSS Grid can do. I'm excited to keep learning and see what it's really capable of.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

I’m really curious if there’s a better way to switch between different Grid layouts without relying on @media queries. Like with Flexbox, I can use flex-wrap: wrap; to let items drop to a new row and kind of change the layout automatically.

• Is there something similar I can do with CSS Grid?
• And would that actually make sense for this particular challenge?

Any tips, tricks, or advice would be super appreciated!
