Frustrations with CSS Flexbox (lemmy.goblackcat.com)

I'm struggling with CSS Flexbox. Each time I think I'm about to get it in an aha momet, I'm actually two steps backwards. I'm taking The Odin Project course and I'm at the phase where I am building the landing page. I've worked on it for 16 straight hours and I'm almost finished. It just looks like shit on a small screen but in fairness, the curriculum did mention that. Otherwise, what I have looks like the goal. I did one or two extra easy touches.

Okay so one question: when is it better to use flex-direction: column and when is it better to use flex-direction row? I'm seriously confused.

Yo! I’m in exactly the same place in my Odin Project curriculum. I’m also actually doing OpenClassrooms bootcamp (through my employer). I didn’t struggle too much with flex (except in column format. It’s so bad.) feel free to DM me and chat about it if you want a project partner! I’m on discord too. Same username.

Hey! Sorry I am just seeing this now I pushed past the difficulty and kept trying different things until I got it. The result of my landing page is housepanther landing page. It turned into a lot of fun.
