If this is the case, that is where you will learn and solidify flexbox and or css grid.
Build these projects and look for ways of implementing flexbox or css-grid into them and even try implementing other things such as a button that has simple action with Javascript.
As far as how to do this, just search your specific question on Google. More than likely you will find your answer on StackOverflow, MDN, freeCodeCamp, or w3schools.

That being said I would suggest building a few other projects besides these and continue to use things previously learned in html & css, eg. variables, flexbox, css grid, animations, and more.
These extra projects can be performed on the side while at the same time you move on to the Javascript portion.
But I would not move on to Javascript until you have completed the (New) Responsive Web Design section Certification Projects.
Like you suggest, I would have to look back at the lessons on flexbox and grid in order to put them all together, or google for how to put those things together. But when I search for coding help, there is such a tangle of websites of varying usability. Do you recommend a book or an easy-to-use online resource that you think is very clear?
@anneclaiborne I do love books, but when it comes to learning css such as flexbox and css grid, the best way to learn is by trial and error building projects and referring to cheat sheets for these.
This is what I find helps me the most.

He has since updated the course with Flexbox and CSS Grid tutorial projects so deciding if I should skip this section. It's a long section that's close to 10 hours of video. Lot of wasted time if this style is no longer in favor.

Hi, great tutorial.
Is it possible to use flex to make a perfect grid with some square boxes of side double than other square boxes. The grid is supposed to contain only two kind of boxes-small and big(with side double to that of small box).
Wow. Just started to look at using flexbox as I update some educational materials I began 22 years ago (yes html2!) from html 4 to html 5. Been overwhelmed at the change from frames to div. But your site puts things in the language a non-programmer teacher can use to update to something other than frames. Thanks for such a well done site. Now lets get my hands dirty and brain overloaded. My main frame page is 11 frames.
During this pandemic, I made a resolution to learn to code and join an online cooking class. With this in mind, I enrolled myself in a basic project-based HTML and CSS course from Udemy. In this course, I have learned basic HTML, a lot of CSS properties with their applications, CSS flexbox, CSS grid. I am also teaching myself Java with the help of some online tutorials, though it may take more time and effort to acquire the skill.
CSS allows us to control all design-related aspect of a website ranging from typography to page layout, to all the other visual aspect of a website. I have a wealth of knowledge in CSS fundamentals, CSS flexbox and CSS grid. I have outlined some of the projects below.
So this was my first one 2 years ago. It started as a simple image gallery based on a tutorial, there was no flexbox involved and only the gallery had css grid. In the time I changed a bit, not much styling, but I did add some flexbox and grid.
But honestly in that time was basically almost seeing others people code, and copy paste to mine. I understood some things, but left many to be understood and pass to my next project. My goal in the time was to get a job in coding, and I thought that the more projects the better.
As you might realized, I did some mistakes in my evaluation but luckily I learn with them and now the goal didn't change but my approach did. So I keep learning and really try to understand everything I am doing.
So navbar is done, let's start our image gallery.
I also have the title and add some animation to it, but because it was not the main point of this tutorial, I will not explain it here even that it is on the final example and also in the last codepen and my Github and video.
So this is our html looks like with our gallery:
So what I did here? In the navbar I set it to a navbar. Why use div when you can use html elements? With the element navbar, a screen reader can easily access the navbar and identify it as one. Of course that you can achieve that with a div and give it a aria-label of navbar, but if we have the html elements, it's best practice to use it.
For example with the icons, the screen reader didn't read them as which icons they are precisely, but we can achieve this give each one of them an aria-label of the name we want to name it.
There is much more we can do to make the websites more accessible, this was just a small part.The more I will learn about it, the more i will use it in my projects/websites.
Build and visually design a full portfolio website within the span of 21 days. Covering everything from the basics of grid and flexbox to advanced interactions and accessibility work, this course takes us through each and every step of building and launching a site in Webflow.
For starters, we need an empty HTML document that contains nothing but a menu bar. Make a new Atom project called flexbox to house all the example files for this chapter. Then, create flexbox.html and add the following markup:
One of the most amazing things about flexbox is its ability to transform rows into columns using only a single line of CSS. Try adding the following flex-direction declaration to our .photo-grid rule:
One issue that arises when you have a fixed width or height in your layout is that eventually your flexbox children will overflow their container, breaking the layout. Have a look at our flexbox-wrap0.html example and try viewing it live (take a local copy of this file now if you want to follow along with this example):
Let's now return to our first example and look at how we can control what proportion of space flex items take up compared to the other flex items. Fire up your local copy of flexbox0.html, or take a copy of flexbox1.html as a new starting point (see it live).
You can also use flexbox features to align flex items along the main or cross axis. Let's explore this by looking at a new example: flex-align0.html (see it live also). We're going to turn this into a neat, flexible button/toolbar. At the moment you'll see a horizontal menu bar with some buttons jammed into the top left-hand corner.
It's possible to create some pretty complex layouts with flexbox. It's perfectly OK to set a flex item to also be a flex container, so that its children are also laid out like flexible boxes. Have a look at complex-flexbox.html (see it live also).
Although it's taken me two years to finally get on the CSS Grid train, the wait has been worth it. This course was exactly what I needed to start using CSS Grid within my projects. I can't wait for it to be released to the rest of the world so you can also see just how big of a game changer CSS Grid is!
Really nice article on presenting a better solution for a common front-end development pattern. One thing you did not mention is how cards will layout when you do not have an equal number of cards to columns on the last row. To use your last media query as an example, if you had 2 or 3 cards in the last row. They would space out more which will look different than the rest of your layout which may not be what you desire. I addressed this in a recent blog post along with a solution I found, -last-child-in-flexbox-grid/.
The flex grid works very similarly to the standard float grid, but includes a number of useful features only possible with flexbox, like horizontal and vertical alignment, automatic sizing, and easier source ordering.
The flex grid is only supported in Chrome, Firefox, Safari 6+, IE10+, iOS 7+, and Android 4.4+. Flexbox is supported in Android 2, but not reliably enough for use with this grid. (View flexbox browser support.) We recommend only using the flex grid on projects that can live with purely cutting-edge browser support.
A block grid row has the property align-items: stretch by default, meaning the columns in each row are equal height. To change this, change the align-items property of the row, or use one of the vertical alignment flexbox classes.
This course is for both beginners and seasoned developers that want to learn how to build responsive websites and user interfaces with modern HTML5 and CSS3+ technologies like Flexbox and CSS Grid as well as the Sass pre-compiler. This course includes hours of both learning & studying sections along with real life projects. Stop having to rely on frameworks like Bootstrap for your user interface and learn how to create your own layouts and utilityclasses to build custom responsive websites and app UIs.
