My process

As I started the project, I made a list of components that make up the app. This helped me focus on which component is going to have the responsibility. I picked easier to recognize names for the components.

With Tailwind CSS, I added the styles starting from the top and working my way down. I focused on getting the project up and running as soon as possible, so I can adjust the small details later on. Plus, I'll have something presentable and a visible progress.

Built with

  • Semantic HTML5 markup
  • Flexbox
  • CSS Grid
  • Mobile-first workflow
  • React - JS library
  • Tailwind CSS - CSS Framework

What I learned

I learned to set up projects with more confidence without wasting time on fixing issues such as config files confliction.

I also learned to make better decisions when I'm making a component in React. Every component has a single responsibility. And I've also made them reusable.

Continued development

In the future, I'll be displaying the chart bars based on the fetched data from the JSON file. And there's going to be more emphasis on component tree structure.
