My process

Built with

• React (class based to handle state and functional for other components)
• Styled-components used to style components
• Flexbox
• Desktop-first workflow

What I learned

This was my first attempt at having dark-mode/light-mode feature. I found an efficient way to handle the different themes thanks to styled-components so it was easier than I thought it would be. I also feel a lot more comfortable using functions as props.
