• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• CSS Grid
• Mobile-first workflow
• React - JS library
• SASS - For styles

I got to implement SASS in a project for the first time while also learning some new CSS grid tricks.

I found the SASS workflow within a react project a little clunky - especially in terms of not being able to allow components to be self-contained if I had to break the project down into the atomic structure (their styling would exist in seperate SCSS's). In future, I want to tro use something like styled-components or tailwind for a more component-centric approach.
