📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR replaces the Twitter icon with a new custom X icon component across the application, introduces the XIcon component for SVG rendering, and enhances UI styling with Tailwind classes for improved hover effects, transitions, and dark-mode support across multiple pages.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Custom X Icon Component
src/components/XIcon.jsx
New React component that renders a custom SVG X icon. Accepts a className prop and forwards it to the SVG element, with currentColor fill and aria-hidden attribute.
Icon Replacement
src/components/Footer.jsx, src/pages/index.jsx
Replaced FontAwesome Twitter (faTwitter) icon with the new XIcon component. Updated accessibility labels from "Follow on Twitter" to "Follow on X (Twitter)".
Styling Enhancements
src/pages/apply.jsx, src/pages/ideas/2024/index.jsx, src/pages/ideas/index.jsx
Added Tailwind utility classes for improved visual interactions, including hover transform effects, transitions, duration timing, scale animations, and dark-mode variants to article cards and call-to-action links.

17-28: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

CSS transition conflict between Tailwind and MUI sx.

Tailwind's transition-transform (Line 17) generates transition-property: transform; transition-duration: 200ms, while the sx prop (Line 27) sets transition: 'background-color 0.3s ease'. Whichever applies last will override the other — you'll lose either the scale or the background-color transition.

Consolidate both transitions in one place:

♻️ Option: move both transitions to Tailwind
-        className="dark:bg-[`#2A2A2A`] dark:border-white transform transition-transform duration-200 hover:scale-105"
+        className="dark:bg-[`#2A2A2A`] dark:border-white transform transition-all duration-200 hover:scale-105"

Then remove transition: 'background-color 0.3s ease' from the sx object (Line 27). Using transition-all covers both transform and background-color.

145-152: Redundant font-mono font-semibold on both the Link and inner span.

The font-mono font-semibold classes appear on the <Link> (Line 146) and again on the inner <span> (Line 149). The inner span inherits from the link, so one set is sufficient. Also, order-1 on Line 146 has no effect since there's only one child in the flex container.

49-51: Consider updating the URL from twitter.com to x.com.

The link still points to https://twitter.com/aossie_org. While Twitter URLs redirect to x.com, updating it to https://x.com/aossie_org would be consistent with the rebranding reflected in the label and icon change. Same applies to src/pages/index.jsx Line 93.

Also verify that h-6 w-6 visually matches the FontAwesome size='xl' used for the other icons in this row, to ensure consistent sizing.

className or remove the sx transition and consolidate all transition rules in
sx, updating the className or sx accordingly—apply this change where the JSX
uses className and the sx prop on the same element to ensure a single unified
