Design comparison
Solution retrospective
The main problems I faced with the project were having to hard code margins in for the desktop view in order to keep the avatar image separate, and not being able to change the color of the svg images for the light and dark mode toggle, and also the error message styling was a bit funky for me. I am happy to hear any feedback for those things as well as any other best practices!

Hi Arkell Kenney, how are you?
I really liked the result of your project, but I have some tips that I think you will like:
1- We have to make sure that all the content is contained in a reference region, designated with HTML5 reference elements or ARIA reference regions.
Example:
native HTML5 reference elements:
<body> <header>This is the header</header> <nav>This is the nav</nav> <main>This is the main</main> <footer>This is the footer</footer> </body>
ARIA best practices call for using native HTML5 reference elements instead of ARIA functions whenever possible, but the markup in the following example works:
<body> <div role="banner">This is the header</div> <div role="navigation">This is the nav</div> <div role="main">This is the main</div> <div role="contentinfo">This is the footer</div> </body>
It is a best practice to contain all content, except skip links, in distinct regions such as header, navigation, main, and footer.

2- Why it Matters
Navigating the web page is far simpler for screen reader users if all of the content splits between one or more high-level sections. Content outside of these sections is difficult to find, and its purpose may be unclear.
HTML has historically lacked some key semantic markers, such as the ability to designate sections of the page as the header, navigation, main content, and footer. Using both HTML5 elements and ARIA landmarks in the same element is considered a best practice, but the future will favor HTML regions as browser support increases.
Rule Description
It is a best practice to ensure that there is only one main landmark to navigate to the primary content of the page and that if the page contains iframe elements, each should either contain no landmarks, or just a single landmark.

Prefer to use
rem
overpx
to have your page working better across browsers and resizing the elements properlyThe rest is great!!
Hope it helps...👍
