Having done my midterm project using a grid and struggling with getting it to work with color extending beyond the grid cells I couldn’t help wondering if Flexbox would have been, well, more flexible.
The challenge was to have the content and cells remain in a set width container in the middle and color extend from each cell of the grid beyond the container. I eventually got it to work but did a lot of variations trying to make a grid to account for the spaces outside of the container but that didn’t work. Then tried taking everything out of the main container and positioning section individually so the grid section can be contained by its own containing div that holds the extended color areas. It took quite a few hours to figure it out but was excited with the results when it worked.
I would like to build this same project using Flexbox just to see if it would work any easier…sometime.
