Hi guys, I'm so excited. I was able to complete the Project Challenge of Guil Hernandez to layout the "Best City Guide" website. I got it to work almost as exactly as his without looking at the solution video. So I wanted to share my code before moving on to the solution video. So excited. Thanks guys. I'm sure it could be written better but I'm jsut excited cause it works.

Courses Plus Student 8,447 PointsJennifer Nordell So I just finished looking at the solution video. I came pretty close man. Many of the styles he wrote to achieve certain results, like in the navigation and the floated columns I were different from mines, and some written in different places in the css, but the results are the same. I'm really excited. wish I knew how to post emojis here.

For example,

Some of the commonly used ones (at least by me) are: :wink:

The markdown here seems to support most (but not quite all) of the ones found on this handy cheat sheet.

Treehouse TeacherSomething I've said often is "Bonus points if you can guess basically what they're going to type before they type it.". Well done! In this case, you completed a challenge without looking at the solution at all (or at least the vast majority of it). I think that's pretty hard to beat!
