🧱 Project Structure
smartfit-landing/
├── index.html
└── style.css
🔧 Step 1: HTML Structure
This is the layout structure we’ll use for the header and hero section:
<header class="header">
<div class="container">
<h1 class="logo">SmartFit</h1>
<nav class="nav">
<a href="#features">Features</a>
<a href="#about">About</a>
<a href="#contact">Contact</a>
</nav>
</div>
</header>
<section class="hero">
<div class="container">
<div class="hero-text">
<h2>Track your health. Transform your life.</h2>
<p>SmartFit helps you stay in shape with real-time health monitoring and progress tracking.</p>
<a href="#" class="btn">Get Started</a>
</div>
<div class="hero-image">
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/400x300" alt="Fitness Tracker" />
</div>
</div>
</section>
You’ll also add other sections like features, about, and footer using similar semantic structure.
🎨 Step 2: CSS Styling
Use this CSS to style your layout and buttons:
.hero .container {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
align-items: center;
gap: 2rem;
}
.hero-text h2 {
font-size: 2.5rem;
margin-bottom: 1rem;
}
.btn {
display: inline-block;
padding: 0.8rem 1.5rem;
background-color: #00796b;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
border-radius: 5px;
}
Use similar styles for the header, features section, and footer.📱 Step 3: Make It Responsive
Add this media query to adjust the layout on smaller screens:
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.hero .container {
flex-direction: column;
text-align: center;
}
.nav {
flex-direction: column;
align-items: flex-start;
}
}
This ensures that the hero image and text stack nicely on smaller screens.🧩 Features Section Example

, .feature-grid
, and .feature
