We need more of these project videos Kevin. Your methods to tackle common web dev problems is really amazing and helpful for other devs. It'd be great if you could do more of these videos

So many pieces of gold throughout this video for anyone newer to css. Thank you for not editing out the part where you had to change the design and go a different direction!

[@Rubi-fn9uu]

I've learnt more in this video than in my 3 years of web development in high school. Thx Kevin!

[@111earthangel5]

Thank you for this awesome video. I recently completed the Responsive Layout Course and I just want to THANK YOUUU. The course has changed the way I tackle building responsive layout designs. Enjoyed it and learnt so much from it. I’m excited and a lot more confident in building my first portfolio project. Would 100% recommend to anyone who hasn’t taken it by now

[@mraihan295]

How long did you take to finish the responsive layout course? I was thinking to take the course too

i love when developers on youtube go super in depth explaining everything, especially to do with the responsiveness of webpages

[@MrOliver1444]

Kevin is such a nice, entertaining and funny guy! I love your videos. I can follow along with how you explain and lay out stuff so easily. In the future I will buy some courses when I need them. Thank you so much for your efforts!

[@Kj-gr9fv]

Kevin, I can’t thank you enough for this walkthrough! I am a digital designer who is just starting to learn to code. I’m not very far along in my HTML/CSS training yet but seeing someone work on a real project and talk through considerations along the way was incredibly valuable in my learning. It also helped get my psyched up to keep learning even though it’s a daunting skill to tackle. Thanks very much!!

[@KevinPowell]

Glad it was helpful!

amazing. This is the reason i subscribed, i like how detailed your explaination and solution is. At some point, it did really make me kinda awkward for like putting those margin and padding for no reason haha.

Awesome video Kevin! I've just learned CSS Flexbox and Grid, and I was looking for a project to watch them into practice. I felt like if I were pair programming with you Kevin. Thank you very much for this video and congratulations for the channel which is helping me to fall in love with CSS.

hgroup is was a good idea that never really took off. It is also an odd one, that was removed from the W3C standard, but not the living standard. Really the purpose is to remove the secondary headings from changing the outline like I said it would, and so I personally think it's easy enough not to bother and just use a paragraph anyway.

[@dhirajkaradage]

Before watching entire video I can say that it is worth watching

[@3208nandu]

Great video with superb detailing thanks Kevin.just one thing i have noted you haven't put .card:nth-child(1) { grid-area: one; } .card:nth-child(2) { grid-area: two; } .card:nth-child(3) { grid-area: three; } .card:nth-child(4) { grid-area: four; } it should be inside media query

[@vishalgaur11]

Thanks brother was looking for this only

[@Dimitar-T-Radev]

Thank you for this tutorial. I just did this challenge (all by myself, without copying) after watching your video and it was a great practice experience. Just a quick comment - at 22:05 when you copy the neutral colours and say that you'll use colour picker for the primary one, they're there, above them. We don't need the colour picker.

[@KevinPowell]

Oops, missed that somehow, lol

[@jacobwwarner]

Reaching the end I definitely like the grid solution more than flex. Following what I've heard you say in other videos, grid is better when you want the parent to exercise control of its children. So, in this example, you can have more control just adding properties to the `.layout-grid` rather than having to also worry about the `.card` for layout positioning. `.card` just becomes concerned with styling.

[@karenbyrd1865]

Always great, Kevin. Loved the snippet about windows powertoys will install, but wanted to let everyone know the colors are listed in the style-guide. They are listed above the neutral colors. I love watching your videos to see different points of view on projects.

[@imsecretshine]

Amazing style of teaching... Your teaching process is amazing...

[@ulriklarsen2239]

you are a great teacher and your knowledge is very inspiring !

[@mustafeismajli2810]

The simplest way how I fixed the problem of border-top color is this : .col:nth-child(1) > .card{ border-top: solid 0.25rem var(--clr-supervisor); } .col:nth-child(2) > .card:nth-child(1){ border-top: solid 0.25rem var(--clr-teambuilder); } .col:nth-child(2) > .card:nth-child(2){ border-top: solid 0.25rem var(--clr-karma); } .col:nth-child(3) > .card{ border-top: solid 0.25rem var(--clr-calculator); } . I could've done just border-color on each one, but i decided to do on this way . Your videos are amazing and helpful btw!

[@paulsicurello2333]

Thank you I really enjoy learning from you, you make it a fun and relaxed atmosphere

[@bertugturker9565]

even tho i am using tailwind and 99% of the time gotta stick to it i enjoyed the whole video. thanks Kevin always educational to watch you🙏🏻

[@mrtuncer]

i really enjoyed while watching, working on js nowadays but this made me remember all flex grid constructs again... thnks for all Kevin👍

[@Mirzaisha11]

[@thechannel8616]

At 56:00 if you want to use the card's order to change the border color you could use the nth-of-type selector and it would've given the same effect had you used a grid with 4 direct children. Great video!

[@mkrichey1]

I have been away from CSS for the better part of a decade, thank you for the catch-up on some of the new features, excited to learn more!

[@ashawesomeone]

46:45 instead of using display grid on .col,you can also give the parent (.layout-grid) "align-items: center"

[@nigelarmstrong252]

Hi Kevin, thanks for all the great videos you've made over the years. You were wearing a t-shirt the other day which made me realise I've been mis-hearing you on every video with your introduction ! I've always heard "Hello my friend and friends". Thought it a bit odd but got used to it being your greeting. Then I saw your t-shirt on a recent video and it had "Front end" on it. Suddenly the penny dropped !! I can just about hear you say "Hello front end friends" but it still sounds like "friend and friends". Thought I'd let you know as it might give you a laugh ! Regards.

[@paulok2153]

Yeah man, your good to watch. Cheers.

[@ofcljaved]

The thing that blow my mind out of the window is the usecase of margin-left:auto; Obviously My first thought was using grid is easy but Today I learn this basic thing which eventually impact more.

For Grid vs Flex. Normally go with one and swap to the other if I do not like the first one, think I lean to grid first though. It does not matter to much since it is easy to swap between the two normally.

[@eazygfx4815]

Not sure if it's the correct way but i've done it on my landing page (but then rotated 90 degrees) i would make 3 columns, somehow split column 2 into 2 rows (or make 3 different divs with 3 different grids) have the first and 3rd column center the div with align-content: center; and the middle div can hold 2 items (works but yeah i need to get into grids a little more xD, currently doing your 21day course. So far it helps :))

[@ysiegel]

Hey Kevin! These videos are amazing, a huge help on my journey starting out! So first of all, a huge thank you. I wanted to ask if you could perhaps expand on the reset-commands that you start out with when going into css. You do it in every video but they are not very much explained, and the concepts are a bit foreign to me and so I'm having trouble understanding the reasoning and working behind them. For example, I know more or less what pseudo-classes are, but I don't see how they fit in to resetting css and why it's particularly relevant when it comes to a flexbox layout.

Hi Kevin! I think after removing the div.col at around @1:07:35, the nth-child selectors should be inside the media query for 800px screens and up? I tried doing it outside and when I test with smaller screens, all cards just stacks in one position (middle right). Pls correct me If I miss something. I will follow your other tutorials as I like how you explain things. Thank you so much dude!

Hey Kevin 😊 I'm from germany and I guess, that Google prefers the user to implement the fonts locally on the server, because last summer we had a huge data protection issue in europe. As soon as a user used a website, he revealed his ip address to Google without permission. So every owner of a website had to switch to a local font implementation.

[@KevinPowell]

Yup, I mentioned that in my how to locally host Google fonts video 😊. There are other services that are fine to use too, but I forget their names now.

[@aurusaurum9649]

I would really appreciate the html and css files for the grid/final version! I tried it and ran into problems where the stacked (narrow/mobile) version wrote on top of each other!

[@philemonokpokpa503]

Hello Kevin . I appreciate what you’re doing for the community. So, sometimes I go into the dev tools to inspect sites that I want to clone and it gives me css properties and values for html elements that I think may not be in the original code. For example, you didn’t give height and width values to those cards but the inspector may just give me a height and width value of the cards. Could this be a reason why we should not be depending on the inspector for properties and values of an element? Good video BTW. I find myself writing html and css the way you’d do because I’ve been following you for say 3 years now. Thank you very much

[@petroczibalazs5434]

Please, answer why you don't bring the rem size to a decimal basis using the common trick like this: html{ font-size: 10px; } body{ font-size: 1.6rem; padding: 0; margin:0; } This brings the best for both sides by allowing the user to zoom in or out and see the font size change and lets the developer calculate on a a decimal basis. Is there any particular objective reason for that or only your personal preferences?

Kevin, you mentioned that you don't use BEM so much anymore. Do you use any other naming convention nowadays? Thank you for this very informative video. ;)

hey Kev, is there a way to utilize a combination of text-wrap: balance and tight inline flex? I was trying to get some pills to flex-wrap in a container the other day and noticed that if the normal layout of text would wrap inside the element, it doesn't resize the container

[@KevinPowell]

When text is wrapping, it doesn't change the size of the element, just visually where the line break is. If you had a background on it, it would take up the same amount of space

[@ofcljaved]

I would have use grid for this because i wanna keep my html as minimum and self explanatory as possible
