What I learned

The positioning of the two circles in the background was more challenging than I thought. I used a few media queries at first which were not ideal. But, fellow Frontend Mentor @hcxweb shared a better solution with me of using background positioning with vw & vh units.

Useful resources

• Getting started with Vite - This will help with scaffolding a new Vite project
• CSS background - Info on using the CSS background property
