Solution retrospective

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

This is my version of the "Blog Preview Card" challenge by Frontend Mentor. I feel that I recreated this exactly and used very efficient and accurate HTML/CSS.

I'm proud of finding the solution to an easy drop shadow behind the card using the filter: drop-shadow option in the css file.

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

Lining up the profile icon with the name, still not sure how I managed to do it properly and it still isn't exactly centred.

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

Help with the best way to line-up the profile icon with the name.

You can align the icon with name using flexbox like so

html

<div class="profile-icon">
    <img src="images/image-avatar.webp" alt="Greg Hooper Profile Icon" style="width: 32px; height: 32px;">
    <span class="profile-text">Greg Hooper</span>
</div>

css

.profile-icon{
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    gap: 0.75rem;
}

Hi @tomblack9452,

Nice project! Here are a couple of suggestions for improvement:

ARIA Labels and Semantic HTML: Consider adding aria-label attributes to <div> elements to enhance accessibility for screen readers. This practice will help with both accessibility and SEO. Alternatively, when appropriate, use semantic HTML elements like <section>, <article>, or <header> to provide more meaningful structure to your content.

CSS Resets and Box-Sizing: To ensure consistent styling across different projects, it's a good idea to reset margins on the <html> and <body> elements. Additionally, using * { box-sizing: border-box; } will help maintain consistent box-sizing across your site, making layout and styling more predictable.

Hope these suggestions help!

Best, Teodor
