- The author discovered a minor bug where font size was slightly off due to rounding errors during conversion from px to rem units.
- The site’s layout evolved from fixed widths (450px/600px) for older monitors to a responsive design using breakpoints and smooth scaling.
- An interactive calculator was developed to automate CSS calculations, eliminating manual errors from earlier conversions.
- The layout formulas were updated to use modern CSS functions like min(), clamp(), and round() for integer widths and better responsiveness.
- The project’s initial bug fix was trivial, but the resulting automated system provides reusable formulas for future adaptive layouts.
