We faced numerous challenges throughout the journey. But we all were new to it. Sometimes it is the connection issues and sometimes it’s our lack of experience in integration feature. It took a lot of time to overcome this issue. After this we have faced issues while writing codes for responsive design. Sometimes the components were distorted and moved from their places. It took time to place them in their right position. Placing the elements in their position and designing for responsiveness was our big challenge.
