CSS | Instagram Clone

Introduction

One of the best ways to sharpen your CSS skills is to try to recreate an existing style and layout, so take a look at the deliverable below, work with a partner, and build your own version of Instagram.com. Don't worry if you can't get it to look exactly as you see but try your best to get as close as possible.

There's a bit of starter code, so you can jump right into it.

Requirements

• Fork this repo
• Clone this repo into your ~/code/labs
