Sleek Developer Portfolio with SASS

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

I am most proud of the knowledge I gained using SASS. With SASS I was able to properly organise my stylesheet, plan ahead and use best practices which saved me time, removed redundance and clutter.

Ultimately, I was able to write clean codes.

Using partials, learning about @use and @forward compared to the @import was also an eye opener.

Going forward, I would love to learn more in-depth ways of using SASS, functions etc. This would allow me to have even more control of my CSS.

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

Many tutorials on using SASS are dated, and therefore some syntax and methods are deprecated. I had to dig deep to find some more recent explanatory videos on how to work around the use of @insert.

Using @use and @forward was a game changer, taught by Kevin Powell, I was able to set up all my variables and partials.

I also encountered the challenge of using a bundler like parcel, and had to understand the directory structure, research on creating build files, deploying them and correcting the file paths in the dist folder, to allow for the file to come up.

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

I would like help with knowing how to really use the @use and @forward methods in SASS.

Chiefly because I believe that I just scratched the surface.

Also knowing what accessibility standards to use as a project expands and best naming conventions would be a really great help.
