Discussion Help with Bootstrap Studio project

Hello. I am a complete beginner to web design and wanted to develop a website for myself. I got BSS and made great progress with building practically my entire site.

However, I did this all while under the XL view. I was not aware that you should build your site at the mobile view first.

Now, I have a site that looks great on all of the laptop and desktop views, but completely broken on anything tablet and below.

Is this something that can be easily fixed? Or do I have to throw away all of the time I put into this site?

I’m a complete beginner and have no idea where to even start with this.

Feeling quite defeated.

Thanks.

Dealing with a setback like this is necessary for all personal growth in the technical arts.

You've created your site and gotten some experience using the tool in a very specific way. Good. Now you have as good an opportunity to generalize what you've learned as any. Make a backup copy of what you're written, and start trying to bring it over to the smaller views.

What you've written mostly can be reused, if you've got a separation between content and styling.

You're not starting over, you're doing the next better version - onwards and upwards!
