Hi @Anton-Vlad 👋, good job completing this challenge, and welcome to the Frontend Mentor Community! 🎉

Here are some suggestions you might consider:

In this challenge, you should not use the background property to set the image because this image has semantic meaning. Use the CSS background property if the image is not part of the content.
Instead of using pixels in font size, use relative units of measure like rem or em. The font size in absolute length units (px) does not allow users with limited vision to change the text size in some browsers. Reference.
Try to use semantic tags in your code. Click here for more information.:

With semantic tags:

<body>
   <main class="container">
      <article class="card">
         . . .
      </article>
   </main>
   <footer class="attribution">
      . . .
   </footer>
<body>

Add an h1 tag to your solution. The <h1> element is the main heading on a web page. There should only be one <h1> tag per page. The HTML Section Heading elements (Reference)

<h1>Improve your front-end skills by building projects</h1>

I hope those tips will help you.

Good job, and happy coding!

👾Hi @Anton-Vlad, congratulations on your solution!👋 Welcome to the Frontend Mentor Coding Community!

Great solution and a great start! From what I saw you’re on the right track. I’ve few suggestions for you that you can consider adding to your code:

Use <main> instead of a simple <div> this way you improve the semantics and accessibility showing which is the main block of content on this page. Remember that every page should have a <main> block and that <div> doesn't have any semantic meaning.
Replace the <h3> containing the main title with <h1> note that this title is the main heading for this page and every page needs one h1 to show which is the most important heading. Use the sequence h1 h2 h3 h4 h5 to show the hierarchy of your titles in the level of importance, never jump a level.
Add a margin of around margin: 20px to avoid the card touching the screen edges while it scales down.
Use relative units as rem or em instead of px to improve your performance by resizing fonts between different screens and devices. These units are better to make your website more accessible. REM does not just apply to font size, but to all sizes as well.

Here's my solution for this challenge if you wants to see how I build it: https://www.frontendmentor.io/solutions/qr-code-component-vanilla-cs-js-darklight-mode-nS2aOYYsJR
