This uses CSS Grid for layout. in the past we would have to use a framework (e.g. Bootstrap or Foundation) or lots of calculations to create a responsive / adapative site. Try resizing the browser. The max-width: 640px media query on screens means that any size below that will change the layout of the grid. Question - can you reorder the grid layout in the CSS? e.g. put the bottom at the top, and vice-versa? Try.

What is difference between floor and ceil in JS? Explain.
Can you turn this example into a web page that asks me a random maths question, e.g. what is 2 + 4? Give me an input text field to type my answer in, and use if statements to check if my guess is correct.
What is vw and vh a measure of in CSS? investigate.
