Description:
This PR refactors the existing CSS codebase to improve structure, eliminate redundancy, enhance responsiveness, and ensure consistency across the website. The changes introduce a more organized approach to styling, making the code easier to maintain and extend.

Key Changes:
Variable Usage:

Introduced CSS variables (:root) for colors to ensure consistent use of the palette and facilitate future updates.
Variables include: --soft-teal, --deep-teal, --off-white, --dark-slate, --soft-gold.
Improved Button and Link Styles:

Unified button (.btn) styling across the site for a consistent appearance.
Enhanced hover effects for buttons and links to improve interactivity.
Subtle transition effects added for smoother visual feedback.
Footer Enhancement:

Redesigned footer with better spacing and typography for readability.
Consistent styles applied to social media icons and links for a cohesive look.
Animation Enhancements:

Introduced two new animations, floatInFromTop and floatInFromRight, for smoother content entry effects on the homepage.
Improved performance of animations by using subtle opacity and transform transitions.
Responsive Design Tweaks:

Refined media queries for better responsiveness on screens below 991px and 768px.
Adjusted font sizes and layout for smaller screens to ensure readability and ease of navigation on mobile devices.
Added support for mobile menus with smooth transitions using the .fa-bars icon.
Code Structure and Optimization:

Removed redundant styles and combined selectors where possible (e.g., .footer-section ul).
Ensured that all components have consistent padding, margins, and font sizes across the site.
Improved readability by using proper comments and structuring CSS logically.
Before:
CSS had some duplicated styles and inconsistent use of spacing, font sizes, and color codes.
Lack of responsiveness on smaller devices, especially for navigation and footer.
After:
Unified color scheme and button styles for a more professional look.
Improved animation and transitions for smoother user experience.
Enhanced responsive design for mobile devices, ensuring all elements adapt properly to various screen sizes.
More maintainable code with reusable components and clearer structure.

3-6: LGTM: Well-structured color variables.

The introduction of semantic color variables (--deep-teal, --off-white, --dark-slate, --soft-gold) promotes consistency and maintainability.


44-44: LGTM: Consistent styling for headings.

The addition of border-radius enhances visual consistency with other rounded elements like buttons.


18-18: Consider performance impact of increased transition duration.

The transition duration has been increased from .2s to .3s. While this creates smoother animations, be mindful that longer transitions might affect the perceived performance, especially on mobile devices.

Let's check if this global transition is necessary for all elements:

Consider being more specific with transitions by applying them only to necessary properties rather than using a global transition.

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Add support for reduced motion preferences.

The animations look smooth, but consider adding support for users who prefer reduced motion.

Add this media query to respect user preferences:

@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
  .home,
  .home .content {
    animation: none;
    opacity: 1;
    transform: none;
  }
}

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Consider modern CSS for mobile menu.

The mobile menu uses clip-path for show/hide behavior. While functional, consider using modern CSS features for better performance.

Consider this alternative approach:

.navbar {
  transform: translateY(-100%);
  opacity: 0;
  visibility: hidden;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease, opacity 0.3s ease, visibility 0s linear 0.3s;
}

#toggler:checked ~ .navbar {
  transform: translateY(0);
  opacity: 1;
  visibility: visible;

🛠️ Refactor suggestion

Consider modern responsive design patterns.

The media queries handle responsive design well. However, for more flexible and maintainable code, consider:

  1. Using CSS container queries for component-level responsiveness
  2. Implementing fluid typography using clamp()

Example of fluid typography:

:root {
  --fluid-type-min: 1.4rem;
  --fluid-type-max: 1.8rem;
}

.footer-section ul li {
  font-size: clamp(
    var(--fluid-type-min),
    calc(1rem + 2vw),
    var(--fluid-type-max)
  );
}

⚠️ Potential issue

Maintain color consistency in footer icons.

The social icons are using hardcoded colors instead of CSS variables.

Update the colors to use CSS variables:

 .footer .footer-section .social-icons a {
     font-size: 2rem;
     margin-right: 1.5rem;
-    color: #2f4f4f;
+    color: var(--dark-slate);
     transition: color 0.3s ease;
 }

⚠️ Potential issue

Use CSS variables for button colors.

The button colors are using hardcoded hex values (#3f10ea, #f03c0b) instead of the defined CSS variables. This contradicts the PR's goal of consistent color management.

Consider adding these colors to the CSS variables if they're part of the design system:

 :root {
     --soft-teal: #003d4d;
     --deep-teal: #003d4d;
     --off-white: #f8f9fa;
     --dark-slate: #2f4f4f;
     --soft-gold: #d9c79e;

 }

 }

+    background-color: var(--accent-orange);
 }

Line range hint 8-84: Align progress bar styles with CSS variable system

The progress bar section should use the new CSS variables mentioned in the PR objectives for consistent color management.

Replace hardcoded colors with CSS variables:

.circle {
-    background-color: lightgray;
+    background-color: var(--off-white);
     color: #fff;
}

.step.active .circle {
-    background-color: #007bff;
+    background-color: var(--primary-color);
}

Line range hint 88-223: Reduce code duplication and standardize units

Several opportunities for improvement in the form styling:

  1. Repeated width values could be consolidated into a CSS variable
  2. Inconsistent use of spacing units (mixing rem and px)
  3. Repeated box-shadow values

Consider these improvements:

:root {
+    --form-section-width: 40%;
+    --standard-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
+    --standard-spacing: 2rem;
}

.pInfoLeft, .pInfoRight, .education-entry, 
.expLeft, .expRight, .achiveLeft, .achiveRight,
.projectLeft, .projectRight {
-    width: 40%;
+    width: var(--form-section-width);
}

.form-container {
-    padding: 20px;
-    box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
+    padding: var(--standard-spacing);
+    box-shadow: var(--standard-shadow);
}

Line range hint 227-284: Enhance template card transitions and color consistency

The template card transitions look good, but colors should use the new CSS variable system.

Apply these improvements:

.template-card {
-    border: 1px solid #ccc;
+    border: 1px solid var(--border-color);
     transition: transform 0.3s, box-shadow 0.3s;
}

.template-card:hover {
-    box-shadow: 0 4px 15px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
+    box-shadow: var(--hover-shadow);
}

.template-card p {
-    color: black;
+    color: var(--text-color);
}

Responsive design improvements needed with unit standardization

The review comment is correct. The codebase has:

  1. Only one media query at 768px that doesn't handle form layouts
  2. Extensive use of hardcoded pixel values (50+ instances) that should be converted to relative units
  3. Fixed width percentages that don't adapt for mobile views

Suggested improvements:

  • Convert layout-related pixel values to rem/em for better scaling (margins, paddings, font-sizes)
  • Keep pixels only for small decorative elements (borders, shadows)
  • Add the suggested media query for responsive layouts
  • Consider using CSS custom properties for consistent spacing values

Example locations needing attention:

  • Line 197-200: Form input styles with pixel-based spacing
  • Line 243-245: Template card with fixed units
  • Line 309-312: Various pixel-based margins and paddings
🔗 Analysis chain

Line range hint 88-284: Enhance responsive design for mobile devices

The current media queries only handle the progress bar. Consider adding responsive behavior for:

  1. Form layout (currently fixed 40% widths)
  2. Template cards (fixed 25% width)
  3. Button positioning

Add these media queries:

@media (max-width: 768px) {
    .pInfoLeft, .pInfoRight, .education-entry,
    .expLeft, .expRight, .achiveLeft, .achiveRight,
    .projectLeft, .projectRight {
        width: 100%;
        margin-bottom: var(--standard-spacing);
    }

    .template-card {
        width: 100%;
        margin-bottom: 20px;
    }

    .step1btns {
        justify-content: center;
    }
}

The review comment suggests adding media queries for responsive design and the script results show extensive use of pixel units throughout the CSS. Let me verify if there are any existing media queries in the codebase that might handle responsiveness.
