In today’s digital world, creating visually appealing product cards can significantly enhance user engagement and drive sales. In this step-by-step guide, I will tell you through the process of designing a captivating product card using HTML and CSS.
first Steps to Create a Product Card with HTML and CSS
Getting Started:
To begin, create a folder with any name you prefer. Within this folder, create two files: index.html and `style.css`. These files will contain the HTML and CSS code for our product card.
Explaining HTML:
The HTML file (index.html) serves as the structure of our product card. It consists of various elements such as containers, text areas, and color selectors. Let’s break down the key components:
– The `<div>` elements with specific classes represent different sections of the product card, such as the container, card container, shoe area, text area, etc.
– Input elements (<input>) of type radio are used for color selection. These inputs are visually hidden but play a crucial role in activating different color themes via CSS.
– Images (<img>) are utilized to display the product logo and shoe variations.
– Headings (<h2>, <h4>) and paragraphs (<p>) provide essential information about the product.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css"> <title> product Card</title> </head> <body> <div class="container"> <div class="card-container"> <input type="radio" name="colors-btn" id="color-1" checked> <input type="radio" name="colors-btn" id="color-2"> <input type="radio" name="colors-btn" id="color-3"> <input type="radio" name="colors-btn" id="color-4"> <div class="shoe-area"> <div class="logo-div"> <img src="https://github.com/gerrardNwoke/Prdouct-Card/blob/main/Shoe-product-card/imgs/nike-logo.png?raw=true" alt=""> </div> <div class="floating-div"> <div class="shoe-1"><img src="https://github.com/gerrardNwoke/Prdouct-Card/blob/main/Shoe-product-card/imgs/red-nike.png?raw=true" alt="red-nike" ></div> <div class="shoe-2"><img src="https://github.com/gerrardNwoke/Prdouct-Card/blob/main/Shoe-product-card/imgs/orange-nike.png?raw=true" alt="orange-nike"></div> <div class="shoe-3"><img src="https://github.com/gerrardNwoke/Prdouct-Card/blob/main/Shoe-product-card/imgs/white.png?raw=true" alt="white-nike"></div> <div class="shoe-4"><img src="https://github.com/gerrardNwoke/Prdouct-Card/blob/main/Shoe-product-card/imgs/black-nike.png?raw=true" alt="black-nike"></div> </div> </div> <div class="text-area"> <div class="heading-area"> <h2>Jordan Proto-Lyte</h2> <h4>Running Collection</h4> </div> <p class="paragraph-area"> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.

Second Steps to Create a Product Card with HTML and CSS:
Explaining CSS:
The CSS file (tyle.css) defines the styling and visual aspects of our product card. Here’s an overview of the CSS sections:
– We use CSS variables to define primary colors, text area color, and other style-related variables for easy customization.
– Selectors like `.container`, `.shoe-area`, and `.text-area` target specific HTML elements and apply styles to them.
– Various CSS properties such as `display`, `flex-direction`, `transition`, and `animation` are utilized to create dynamic effects like color transitions and floating animations.
– Media queries (@media) are employed to ensure responsiveness across different screen sizes, adjusting the layout and styling accordingly.
