  Hey, good job.

  Here are some changes you can apply for an even better solution:

  HTML:

  • Every webpage needs a <main> that wraps all of the content, except for <header> and footer>. This is vital for accessibility, as it helps screen readers identify a page's "main" content. Wrap the card in a <main>.

  • The alt text must also say where it leads(the frontendmentor website). A good alt text would be "QR code leading to the Frontend Mentor website."

  • I would change the heading to a <h2> - a page should only have one <h1>, reserved for the main heading. As this is a card heading, it would likely not be the main heading on a page with several components.

  CSS:

  • Including a CSS Reset at the top is good practice.

  • I recommend adding a bit of padding, for example 16px, on the body, to ensure the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens.

  • On the body, change height to min-height: 100svh - this way, the content will not get cut off if it grows beneath the viewport.

  • Remove the width in px on the card. We rarely want to give a component a fixed size, as we need it to grow and shrink according to the screen size.

  • We do want to limit the width of the card, so it doesn't get too wide on larger screens. To solve this issue, give the card a max-width of around 20rem.

  • font-size must never be in px. This is a big accessibility issue, as it prevents the font size from scaling with the user's default setting in the browser. Use rem instead.

  • Paragraphs have a default value of font-weight: 400, so there is no need to declare it.

  • On the image, add display: block, height: auto and change width to max-width: 100% - the max-width prevents it from overflowing its container. Without this, an image would overflow if its intrinsic size is wider than the container. max-width: 100% makes the image shrink to fit inside its container.

  • As the design doesn't change, there is no need for any media queries. When you do need them, they should be in rem or em, not px.

  I like the look of your code, the structure appears to be readable. I did observe that your solution does seems to have a card component that is a bit bigger than the design. Adjusting the size of the QR code image might correct this. You may also consider changing the size of margins or padding. These suggestions may help to reduce the size of the card component.
