CSS allows you to build any layout you want. Unfortunately, we still don't care too much about preventing CSS issues upfront. So at Summit @shadeed9 will outline defensive CSS, a term he coined to describe CSS that is future-proof and defensive.

🌟 New Tip
When working with multilingual websites, make sure to account for short content lengths by setting a minimum size.
In this example, the button "Done" become too small in Arabic. We can fix that by setting a min-width in CSS.

💡 In CSS grid, we can choose between auto-fill and auto-fit for how a grid item should behave. The keyword auto-fit is risky, specially when we don't know the number of grid items.

It's a common mistake to use display: flex and forget about it. When the content gets longer, flex items will stretch to fill the parent.
That's what happened to the image here. The fix is to use align-items or align-self depending on the use case.

Have you ever tried using position: sticky with CSS grid and it didn't work? You need to override the default behavior of CSS grid by applying align-self: start to the aside.

⚠️ By default, flexbox will let its child items take up as much space as the content. This can lead to overflow issues.
Learn more about how to prevent that.
