Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Describe a time you chose to use flexbox	I used flexbox in the Meet the Team section (bears). I used it on both the ul and li tags in this section, which allowed me to manipulate the entire section as well as the images and their text.
Describe a time you chose to use CSS Grid	I used grid in the nav section. I made three columns (1fr 3fr 1fr) and told the middle item (Try Now!) to go in the second column and align right.
What was a challenge you overcame in this project?	Oy! Getting started was a challenge. I kept thinking that I should be wrapping the entire page in a grid and then placing each section within that grid. I struggled to get it to work and finally decided to just modify each section as its own piece without a page wrapper. I hadn't realized that I had the option of adding <div> tags, which might have helped, but I think I learned more manipulating the page without adding to the HTML.
What concept did you get the most clarity on through Startrly?	I am much more comfortable with which problems I prefer to use Flexbox and when I prefer Grid. Flexbox is nice when I want to change the orientation of items from vertical to horizontal and vice versa, and when I want dynamic resizing / responsive design. I prefer grid when I want to specifically place an item within a design and have it basically remain in that relative space when the device or window size changes.
