Tailwind CSS
Tailwind CSS Travel Site - 6. Callouts Section
Updated:
In this lesson, we are going to be building the callouts section of our travel site.
The final result will look like:
You can pick up where we last left off, by cloning the previous tutorial's branch with git.
git clone git@github.com:robertguss/howtocode.io-tailwind-css-landing-page.git
git checkout 5-features-section
First, let's create a new partial called callouts.html
and include it in our src/partials
directory and then include it in our index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>Home | FunTravel</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./css/main.css" />
</head>
<body>
<include src="./partials/nav.html"></include>
<include src="./partials/hero.html"></include>
<include src="./partials/quote-form.html"></include>
<include src="./partials/popular-destinations.html"></include>
<include src="./partials/features.html"></include>
<include src="./partials/callouts.html"></include>
<script src="./js/main.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Then we will add our travel tickets illustration.
<section class="plan-types relative container mx-auto mt-48 pb-24">
<!-- Travel Tickets Illustration -->
<div class="travel-tickets-illustration pt-32">
<img
class="travel-tickets w-1/3 absolute"
src="./images/travel-tickets-colour.svg"
alt=""
/>
</div>
</section>
It should look like this.
Next, let's add our first callout
<section class="plan-types relative container mx-auto mt-48 pb-24">
<!-- Travel Tickets Illustration -->
<div class="travel-tickets-illustration pt-32">
<img
class="travel-tickets w-1/3 absolute"
src="./images/travel-tickets-colour.svg"
alt=""
/>
</div>
<!-- Callout 1 -->
<div class="w-full mx-auto lg:max-w-full lg:flex shadow-2xl">
<div
class="plan-image h-48 lg:h-auto lg:w-48 flex-none bg-cover rounded-t lg:rounded-t-none lg:rounded-l text-center overflow-hidden bg-center"
style="background-image: url(https://source.unsplash.com/600x400/?nature)"
></div>
<div
class="bg-white rounded-b lg:rounded-b-none lg:rounded-r p-4 flex flex-col justify-between leading-normal"
>
<div class="mb-8">
<div class="text-gray-900 font-bold text-xl mb-2">Callout 1</div>
<p class="text-gray-700 text-base">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Voluptatibus
quia, nulla! Maiores et perferendis eaque, exercitationem praesentium
nihil.
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
Now if you look at our page, our tickets are overlapping our card.
Let's add some custom css to position these tickets in a better spot. Add the following to main.css
.travel-tickets {
right: 0;
top: -200px;
transform: rotate(-15deg);
z-index: -1;
}
Much better 😎
Now we will add another callout before we put it inside of a 2 column grid
Here is the markup before we add the grid
<section class="plan-types relative container mx-auto mt-48 pb-24">
<!-- Travel Tickets Illustration -->
<div class="travel-tickets-illustration pt-32">
<img
class="travel-tickets w-1/3 absolute"
src="./images/travel-tickets-colour.svg"
alt=""
/>
</div>
<!-- Callout 1 -->
<div class="w-full mx-auto lg:max-w-full lg:flex shadow-2xl">

<div

Here is what our callouts now look like.
Now all we have to do is duplicate our 2 callouts and the grid and change the images and titles.
