### What I learned

Nothing special about this one, but one little detail I implemented is the colored borders on the top of the feature cards. Normally, what most people will do is set a border on the card container itself, but since the card has a `border-radius`, this means the border will also look rounded a little while the design doesn't. To overcome this, I moved the border to an inner container which means the border will not be rounded because `.card-content` isn't and I added an `overflow: hidden` to `.card` to hide the part of the border sticking out from the card.
```css
...
.card {
...
border-radius: 0.5em;
...
overflow: hidden;
}

.card-content {
border-top: 0.3em solid var(--card-border-color);
...
}
...
```

### Continued development

This was the first time I worked with CSS Grid after a *very* long time. While I forgot the syntax, I didn't forget how dead-simple it was to create layouts with CSS Grid, so it's definitely on my list to get better at and use more for future challenges.

### Useful resources

- [A Complete Guide to Grid ](https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/complete-guide-grid/) - CSS Tricks is the place to go to for all things CSS, this one helped me remember how to use CSS Grid.
