Overview

The challenge

Users should be able to:

• View the optimal layout for each page depending on their device's screen size
• See hover states for all interactive elements throughout the site
• Receive an error message when the contact form is submitted if:
  • The Name, Email or Message fields are empty should show "Can't be empty"
  • The Email is not formatted correctly should show "Please use a valid email address"
• Bonus: View actual locations on the contact page map. The addresses we have on the design are fictional, so you'll need to add real addresses for this bonus task.

My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• TainwindCSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• TailwindCSS Grid
• Desktop-first workflow
• Next.js - React framework
• TailwindCSS - For styles
• react-map-gl

What I learned

• The use of live maps react-map-gl trough the module 'maplibre-gl'.
• The application of Tailwind groups to control hover-overlays.

<div key={index} className="group relative mb-10">
  <div className="flex relative md:w-[280px] md:h-[256px] lg:w-[350px] lg:h-[320px]">
    <Image src={elm.img} alt="Jake" />
  </div>
  <div

    <div className="flex items-center justify-center space-x-5 invert">
      <Image

        src={Linkedin}
        alt="Linkedin"
        width={40}
        height={40}
      />
      <Image
        className="hover:animate-pulse"
        src={Tweeter}
        alt="Tweeter"
        width={40}
        height={40}
      />
    </div>
  </div>
  <p className="text-lg font-bold mt-4">{elm.name}</p>
  <p>{elm.role}</p>
</div>

Continued development

• There are a lot more options in the Maps API. This work just scratched the surface.
• The Tailwind's 'group' feature will be more explored in the future.

Useful resources
