What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I'm trying to do the work as pixel perfect as possible :)

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Some stuff with the resolution and spacing (espiacially between p tags).

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

I just want to be sure that the project displays well on different resolutions and screensizes.

    HTML:

    • Use the <time> element for the date:<p>Published <time datetime="2023-12-21">21 Dec 2023</time></p>.

    • "HTML & CSS" is a heading, so change it to a <h2. As this is a blog card, it should also have a link inside.

    CSS:

    • Add around 1rem of padding on the body, so the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens.

    • You don't need the auto margins on the card - it is centered horizontally using Flexbox.

    • Remove the card's width and the image's height.

    • 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.

    • line-height must also never be in px.

    • Media queries should be in rem.
