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

It was a good challenge to refresh my knowledge of using hover effects and media queries to add a mobile version of the card.

Also I'm back to SCSS and it's awesome, my work with styles is more comfortable and effective now.

Pixel Perfect is a great tool to check how my work matches with the layout and I'm quite satisfied this time with the result.

Next time I want to do a fully responsive design.

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

It still takes a lot of time, I have to make it faster. It comes with time, so I have to be patient and persistent.

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

Any feedback about media queries and responsive design is very welcome.

    Hello, nice work on this challenge! There's a few improvements I can suggest:

    I would recommend using either flexbox or grid to center the card. The position: absolute and transform method is unwieldly and will likely give you problems on future challenges. Here's an article about this if you're unsure.

    I see you used role="main" on the .container div. You should replace the div with the main element instead. It serves the same purpose as role="main". Same thing with the .attribution div; replace it with a footer element.

    I would recommend applying classes directly to the elements you want to style rather than wrap them in a div with a class. Some wrappers are necessary (i.e.: .card-author-wrapper, .card-image and .card-tag), but most of them just add unnecessary noise for no benefit.

    Regarding making this challenge responsive, I would start by trying to remove the fixed px width in favour of max-width for the card. The image shouldn't need a fixed px width either.
