🚀 Blueprints for Success: Your Weekly Project Challenge

This week, let's Create a Responsive Website Layout using CSS Flexbox. Check out the step-by-step guide on the requirements:

1. Header: The header should contain a logo on the left and a navigation menu on the right. Use flexbox properties to space these elements apart.

2. Main Section: The main content area should have two parts:

   • A sidebar on the left, containing a list of links, and

   • A main content area on the right for articles/posts.

   • When the viewport is below 768px, the sidebar should stack on top of the main content area.

3. Footer: The footer should contain three equal-width columns for different content like "About Us", "Contact Info", and "Social Links". The footer should stack the columns vertically when the viewport is less than 768px.

1. Set up your HTML structure. Use semantic HTML5 elements (<header></header>, <main></main>, <aside></aside>, <footer></footer>).

2. Use CSS to style your page. For colors and fonts, feel free to use your creativity.

3. Implement Flexbox in your CSS to control the layout. You should use properties like display: flex, flex-direction, justify-content, align-items, and flex-wrap.

4. Remember to make your design responsive. You can use media queries to change the layout for smaller screens.

5. Bonus: Use some CSS transitions or animations for a better user experience. For instance, you could animate the hover state of your navigation links.
