What I learned

I took on this challenge to practice more with flexbox and SASS.

• I got more comfortable with how to work with parent-child flexbox relationships

For example, this makes it much easier to target a parent's children with the parent > * selector and then apply styles to a flex parent's children.

.card-content {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    padding: $card-padding;

    & > * {
        padding: $tb-padding-smll
    }
}

• I learned about more recent SASS features like @use and @forward.

For example instead of something like this

@import 'abstract/variables';

It's better to use the following to prevent name-spacing conflicts.

 @use '../abstract' as a;

or

 @use '../abstract' as *;
