Tailwind CSS
Tailwind CSS Travel Site - 7. Testimonial Section
Updated:
In this lesson, we are going to be building the testimonial 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 6-callouts-section
First, let's create a new testimonial.html partial in src/partials. Then let's include it in 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>
<include src="./partials/testimonial.html"></include>
<script src="./js/main.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Now let's add in our testimonial markup.
<section class="container mx-auto">
<div class="testimonial-container w-1/2 mx-auto relative pb-32">
<p class="testimonial italic text-3xl">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nulla dolorem,
aspernatur odit sit aliquam, natus reprehenderit maxime voluptatibus nisi
assumenda, sequi velit delectus ducimus neque voluptatum a. Reiciendis,
obcaecati modi?
</p>

<div class="flex items-center mt-6">
<img
class="w-10 h-10 rounded-full mr-4"
src="./images/jonathan.jpg"
alt="Avatar of Jonathan Reinink"
/>
<div class="">
<p class="text-gray-900 leading-none">Larry Silver</p>
<p class="text-gray-600 text-sm">Aug 18</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
Which looks like:
To make this look a little more "designed" we can add a quote svg icon like so:
<section class="container mx-auto">
<div class="testimonial-container w-1/2 mx-auto relative pb-32">
<div class="quotes w-24 absolute">
<svg
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
version="1.1"
x="0px"
y="0px"
viewBox="0 0 100 125"
style="fill: #ccc;"
xml:space="preserve"
>
<path
class="st0"
d="M75.6,40.5c11,0,19.9,9,19.9,20c0,11-9,20-20,20s-20-9-20-20c0-22.1,17.9-40,40-40 C95.5,20.5,82.4,25.4,75.6,40.5z M45.5,60.5c0,11-9,20-20,20s-20-9-20-20l0,0c0-22.1,17.9-40,40-40c0,0-13.1,4.9-19.9,20 C36.6,40.5,45.5,49.5,45.5,60.5z"
/>
</svg>
</div>
<p class="testimonial italic text-3xl">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Nulla dolorem,
aspernatur odit sit aliquam, natus reprehenderit maxime voluptatibus nisi
assumenda, sequi velit delectus ducimus neque voluptatum a. Reiciendis,

<div class="flex items-center mt-6">

<div class="">
<p class="text-gray-900 leading-none">Larry Silver</p>
<p class="text-gray-600 text-sm">Aug 18</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
Which now looks like:
Let's add some custom css to reposition the icon and change the color. Add the following css to main.css
.quotes {
top: -50px;
left: -50px;
z-index: -1;
}
.testimonial {
z-index: 2;
}
Now our testimonial looks like:
That's it! Now our testimonial section is complete 🔥
Our travel site so far looks like:
