Lesson 03 - Hero Section

In this lesson, you’ll begin building the Hero Section of a professional WordPress website using Elementor. Starting with a blank page, you’ll learn how to work with Elementor’s live editor, understand containers, Flexbox layouts, and the drag-and-drop workflow. You’ll recreate the hero section by adding background colors, headings, images, buttons, badges, icons, gradients, spacing, and typography while matching a Figma design as closely as possible. You’ll also learn how to use HEX color codes, upload SVG icons, style buttons, and organize elements using nested containers for a clean, responsive layout.

This hands-on lesson focuses on real-world website building techniques that every WordPress developer should know.
