Solution retrospective

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

I’m proud of the responsive design and code quality, with a focus on accessibility and performance optimization. Next time, I’d integrate accessibility testing earlier and explore using CSS Grid for more complex layouts.

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

I encountered challenges with maintaining consistent accessibility across different devices, which I overcame by using automated accessibility tools. I also struggled with performance optimization but resolved it by implementing lazy loading and minimizing asset sizes.

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

I’d like help improving accessibility, especially around screen reader compatibility and keyboard navigation. Additionally, feedback on optimizing design responsiveness for larger screen sizes would be valuable, as well as any suggestions for improving the maintainability of my code structure.

    Exceptional work! You’re showing great skill here. Before moving on I’ve got a couple of minor suggestions that could make this stand out even more…

    • Using a <main> tag inside the <body> of your HTML is a best practice because it clearly identifies the main content of your page. This helps with accessibility and improves how search engines understand your content.

    • These <span> should really have semantic tags like headings (<h1> to <h6>) and paragraphs (<p>) convey structure and meaning to content, improving accessibility, SEO, and readability by helping search engines and screen readers interpret the content.

    <span>Reliable, efficient delivery</span>
    • Having a clear and descriptive alt text for images is important because it helps people who use screen readers understand the content, making your site more accessible. It also improves SEO, as search engines use alt text to understand the image's context, helping your site rank better, Check this out Write helpful Alt Text to describe images,
                <div class="flex justify-end mt-3">
              <img src="images/icon-supervisor.svg" alt="">
            </div>

    • Overusing <div> tags, known as "divitis," leads to cluttered code, poor semantics, and reduced performance. Instead, use appropriate semantic elements (like <header>, <section>, etc.) to improve readability, accessibility, and SEO. Keep HTML clean and minimal to ensure maintainability, scalability, and better CSS structure.

    • Using a full modern CSS reset is beneficial because it removes default browser styling, creating a consistent starting point for your design across all browsers. It helps avoid unexpected layout issues and makes your styles more predictable, ensuring a uniform appearance on different devices and platforms, check out this site for a Full modern reset

    • While px is useful for precise, fixed sizing, such as border-width, border-radius, inline-padding, and <img> sizes, it has limitations. Pixels don't scale well with user settings or adapt to different devices, which can negatively impact accessibility and responsiveness. For example, using px for font sizes can make text harder to read on some screens, Check this article why font-size must NEVER be in pixels. In contrast, relative units like rem and adjust based on the user’s preferences and device settings, making your design more flexible and accessible. Use px where exact sizing is needed, but prefer relative units for scalable layouts. If you want a deeper explanation watch this video by Kevin Powell CSS em and rem explained. Another great resource I found useful is this px to rem converter based on the default font-size of 16 pixel.

    • Using rem or em units in @media queries is better than px because they are relative units that adapt to user settings, like their preferred font size. This makes your design more responsive and accessible, ensuring it looks good on different devices and respects user preferences.

    • For future project, You could download and host your own fonts using @font-face improves website performance by reducing external requests, provides more control over font usage, ensures consistency across browsers, enhances offline availability, and avoids potential issues if third-party font services become unavailable.

    I hope you’re finding this guidance useful! Keep refining your skills and tackling new challenges with confidence. You’re making great progress—stay motivated and keep coding with enthusiasm! 💻
