Exceptional work! You’re showing great skill here. 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.

  • 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.

    <div class="container">
      <div class="card">

        </div>
      </div>
  • 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.

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! 💻

While the code is overall well-structured (congrats!), I identified a few areas that could be improved:

CSS Overlap: There is some overlap between CSS styles defined within the HTML file and those in the separate .css file. It would be beneficial to consolidate styles to maintain consistency and avoid redundancy.

Heading Structure: The <h2> tag is used without a proper justification, as there is no <h1> present.

Responsive Design: The layout exceeds 320px in width (352px), which may not be suitable for some phone screens. You should consider reducing the image size so that the whole card doesn't exceed that width with padding.

Design Consistency: The solution differs slightly from the original design due to the omission of line height.

Except for these minor details, I think you aced it!
