  Replace<div class="container">with the main tag and <div class="attribution"> with the footer tag to fix the accessibility issues. click here for more on web-accessibility and semantic html

  To center .container on the page, add min-height:100vh; display: flex; align-items: center: justify-content: center; or min-height:100vh; display: grid place-items: center to the body.

  To center .container on the page using flexbox:
  body{
  min-height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  }

  Hello there 👋. Congratulations on completing your first challenge! You have done a great job and I can see you are on the right track.

  I have some suggestions about your code that might interest you.

  HTML 📄:

  • Use the <main> tag to wrap all the main content of the page instead of the <div class="container"> tag. With this semantic element you can improve the accessibility of your page.

  • Use the <footer> tag to wrap the footer of the page instead of the <div class="attribution">. The <footer> element contains information about the author of the page, the copyright, and other legal information.

  • You must use a level-one heading (h1) even though this is not a full-page challenge. You can create an '<h1>' element within your 'main' element that will be hidden visually but visible and readable by screen readers. The class "sr-only" hides content visually and here are the styles to copy. e.g.: <h1 class="sr-only">3-column preview card component</h1>

  • You should use the <a> tag instead of the <button> tag because the Learn More button is a link to another page. Use buttons to perform actions like submitting a form or closing a modal and use links to navigate to another page. You can read more about this here 📘.

  • Not all images should have alt text. Car icons are for decoration purposes only, so they can be hidden from screen-readers by adding aria-hidden="true" and leaving its alt attribute empty:

    <img src="./images/icon-sedans.svg" alt aria-hidden="true">
    <img src="./images/icon-suvs.svg" alt aria-hidden="true" >
    <img src="./images/icon-luxury.svg" alt aria-hidden="true" >
    

  CSS 🎨:

  • Instead of using pixels in font-size, use relative units like em or rem. The font-size in absolute units like pixels does not scale with the user's browser settings. This can cause accessibility issues for users who have set their browser to use a larger font size. You can read more about this here 📘.

  • To center the component in the page, you should use Flexbox or Grid layout. You can read more about centering in CSS here 📘.

    body {
        min-height: 100vh;
        display: flex;
        justify-content: center;
        align-items: center;
        flex-direction: column;
    }
    

  I hope you find it useful! 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great!

  Happy coding!
