  HTML:

  • Every webpage needs a <main> that wraps all of the content, except for <header> and footer>. This is vital for accessibility, as it helps screen readers identify a page's "main" section. Wrap the card in a <main>.

  • I would place the top image in the HTML instead of using background-image in the CSS.

  • You don't need all those divs. Use on div that hold the card content, and one for the bottom section with the image and the name - that is all you need.

  • "Learning" and "Published" are <p> elements. I would use wrap the date in a <time> element:<p>Published <time datetime="2023-12-21">21 Dec 2023</time></p>.

  • "HTML & CSS" is a <h2>, and needs a link inside.

  • The profile image has meaning, so the alt text cannot be empty. I would write "Headshot of Gary Hooper".

  • Never have text in divs alone. Wrap "Greg Hooper" in a <p>.

  CSS:

  • Including a CSS Reset at the top is good practice.

  • It is common to have the Variables as the beginning of the stylesheet.

  • At the top, remove html and .bodyContainer as selectors.

  • I like to add 1rem of padding on the body, to ensure the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens.

  • On the body, change height to min-height - this way, the content will not get cut off if it grows beneath the viewport. Remove the min-width.

  • Except for the profile image, remove all widths and heights in px.

  • Remove min-height on .bannerContainer.

  • Add a max-width of around 20rem on the card, to prevent it from getting too wide on larger screens.

  • font-size must never be in px. This is a big accessibility issue, as it prevents the font size from scaling with the user's default setting in the browser. Use rem instead.

  • It is common to set display: block and max-width: 100% on images.

  • Set padding on the card container, instead of on each section. The padding should be equal, so you could write it like this:padding: 24px;.
