Hello. I have a question about best practices regarding HTML and CSS. I am currently going through the Front End Track and am wondering if I should skip basic layout, responsive design etc and just go with Flex Box? Can you do everything you need to with Flex Box? Or are there attributes taught in the other tutorials that are integral to Front End development? If anyone has any information, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
