A feature section is a key part of a modern website that highlights the essential products or services a company offers. It's an interactive section that grabs the user's attention and communicates the core values or features of the brand or platform. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the process of creating a responsive Feature Section using Next.js and Tailwind CSS.

Prerequisites

Approach to Creating a Feature Section

  • Initialize a new Next.js project using create-next-app.
  • Create a FeatureSection.js component inside the components folder.
  • In this component add the icons for each feature.
  • Include a title and description for each feature.
  • Apply hover effects using Tailwind utilities to improve the interactivity and aesthetics of the section.
  • Use Tailwind CSS to create a grid layout that will adjust according to the screen size, ensuring the section is responsive.
