Menu
I am practicing responsive web design, and using flex.
The problem is, I want to make the width of the .menu li 100% when the screen is smaller than 768px, so I tried to give .menu ul and .menu li width: 100%. But it doesn't work. I also tried flex: 0 0 100% but nothing happened.
How do I make the .menu li 100%?

The main issue here is the margin-left: auto in the toparea rule
If you want to keep the items stacked vertically, you update your media query like this, and reset the margin margin-left: 0
@media only screen and (max-width: 768px ) {
body { background-color: #EAC0F0; }
header { flex-direction: column; }
.logo { justify-content: center; }
.login { display: none; }
.menu ul { flex-direction: column; }
.contents { flex-direction: column; }
.outline ul { display: flex; }
.outline li { flex: 1; }
.toparea { margin-left: 0; } /* added */
}

</div>If you want them to stack horizontally, you update your media query like this, where you let the li grow
@media only screen and (max-width: 768px ) {
body { background-color: #EAC0F0; }
header { flex-direction: column; }
.logo { justify-content: center; }
.login { display: none; }
.menu li { flex-grow: 1; } /* changed */
.contents { flex-direction: column; }
.outline ul { display: flex; }
.outline li { flex: 1; }
.toparea { margin-left: 0; } /* added */
}
