Hello @elameendaiyabu!

Your solution looks great!

I have a couple of suggestions (about semantic HTML) for improvement:

šŸ“Œ First: Use <main> to wrap the main content instead of <div>. You can wrap the whole card with it. The tag <main> is not just for the main text, but for the main content (images, titles and everything else included).

Tags like <div> and <span> are typical examples of non-semantic HTML elements. They serve only as content holders but give no indication as to what type of content they contain or what role that content plays on the page.

šŸ“Œ Second: Don't skip heading levels - start with <h1>, then use <h2>, and so on.

Unlike what most people think, it's not just about the size and weight of the text.

  • The <h1> to <h6> tags are used to define HTML headings.

  • <h1> defines the most important heading.

  • <h6> defines the least important heading.

  • Only use one <h1> per page - this should represent the main heading/title for the whole page.

All these tag changes may have little or any visual impact but they make your HTML code more semantic and improve SEO optimization as well as the accessibility of your project.

I hope it helps!

Other than that, great job!

hey @danielmrz-dev Took note on what you said about <main>. I used to think main is just for main text or smth similar lol. But you are right and i will take note for future projects. About the use of heading tags, i will also correct that! Thanks for the feedback.

i used a custom cursor so in your css you can do this in your active/hover state: cursor: url('your-img.svg'),auto;
