Frontend Interview Prep (Day-4)

HTML & CSS Revision Day

Today I focused completely on strengthening my HTML and CSS concepts.
There were a total of 150 questions related to HTML and CSS shared as part of our interview prep material — and this inspired me to go deep into the core fundamentals.

I went through a curated GitHub repo:
100 Days of Frontend Interview Questions

What I did today

  • Practiced basic HTML structure and semantic tags

  • Played with different CSS layout methods:

    • Flexbox for horizontal/vertical alignment

    • CSS Grid for 2D layout structuring

  • Revised CSS properties like z-index, margin and padding.

  • Focused on building simple UI layouts using just HTML and CSS

  • Tried keeping designs responsive and clean

What I Learned:

  • The importance and proper HTML structure

  • When to use Flex and Grid in different layout situations

  • How margin, align-items, and justify-content behave with Flexbox

  • CSS units like %, rem make layout more adaptive.

Challenges Faced:

  • Struggled a bit with understanding 2D layouts using Grid — it took time to visualize and implement properly

  • Applying CSS consistently across different elements was a bit tricky

  • Remembering all the CSS properties, their behavior, and combining them the right way is tough without constant revision

  • Had to go back to documentation and examples frequently while styling

Gracias:

Grateful for the time today to go deep into styling — HTML and CSS may look simple, but they are the backbone of all frontend work.
