What I learned

Throughout this project, element sizing and flexbox were used to style the webpage. Some of the notable code include:

body {
    background-color: #d6eaf8;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
    min-height: 100vh;
    min-width: 100vw;
}

div {
    background-color: #ffffff;
    text-align: center;
    width: 20%;
    border-radius: 5%;
    padding: 20px;
    margin: auto;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    align-self: center;
}

Continued development

Currently, the QR code is not displayed in full when the window is shrunk to a certain size, while the background of the body element is still shown. Specific code on flexbox will have to be further acquired and applied in order to allow the main contents to take up a minimun size of the whole window.
