Flexbox Row

Use these three properties to create a Flexbox row layout.

.row {
            display: flex;
            flex-direction: row;
            flex-wrap: wrap;
          }

Flexbox Column

Use this to create a Flexbox column layout.

.column {
            display: flex;
            flex-direction: column
          }

CSS Grid Layout

Build a 12-column layout using CSS Grid

.grid {
            display: grid;
            width: 100%;
            grid-template-columns: repeat(12, 1fr);
          }

Linear Gradients

This will create a background linear gradient from top to bottom.

.linear-gradient-background {
            background-image: linear-gradient(
              rgba(232, 102, 236, 0.3) 0%,
              rgba(232, 102, 236, 0.6) 100%
            );
          }

Box Transition Glow

Use transition and box shadows to glow on hover.

.code-card .card-header {
              border-radius: 8px;
              transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;
            }
          .code-card:hover,
          .code-card:hover .card-header {
            box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 8px rgba(232, 102, 236, 1), 0 0 15px rgba(232, 102, 236, 1);
          }

Overlay Card with Title

Use position properties and negative margins to raise elements higher than their natural starting point. 

.card-header {
            position: relative;
            margin-top: -20px;
          }
