Incredible work on this! You’re making great strides, and I have a couple of suggestions that might push it even further…

  • Avoid using id selectors for styling in CSS because they are too specific and hard to override, making your styles less flexible and maintainable. Instead, use class selectors (.), which are reusable and more manageable, allowing for better control over your styles and easier updates.

  • You have a section, div and a main doing the same job, Remove the div and section, Here you only need a main,

 <main>
        <section>
            <div id="imagem">
                <img src="images/illustration-article.svg" alt="Ilustração">
            </div>
            <div>
                <p id="especial">Learning</p>
                <p id="data">Published 21 Dec 2023</p>
            </div>
            <div id="info">
                <h1>HTML & CSS foundations</h1>
                <p>these langages are the backbone of every website defining structure, content and presentation.</p>
            </div>
            <div id="container">
                <img src="images/image-avatar.webp" alt="Pessoa" width="50px" height="50px">
                <p id="user">Greg Hooper</p>
            </div>
        </section>
    </main>
  • 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. Place to get .woff2 fonts

  • 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 position: absolute is not always best practice because it removes elements from the normal document flow, making layouts harder to manage and potentially causing overlap or misalignment on different screen sizes. Instead, use flexible layout techniques like CSS Grid or Flexbox for more responsive and maintainable designs.

  • I think you can benefit from using a naming convention like BEM (Block, Element, Modifier) is beneficial because it makes your CSS more organized, readable, and easier to maintain. BEM helps you clearly understand the purpose of each class, avoid naming conflicts, and create reusable components, leading to a more scalable codebase. For more details BEM,

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! 💻
