Hello there 👋. Congratulations on successfully completing the challenge! 🎉
- I have other recommendations regarding your code that I believe will be of great interest to you.
CSS 🎨:
- Let me explain, How you can easily center the component for better layout without usage of
absolute
positioning.
- We don't need to use
absolute
to center the component both horizontally & vertically. Because usingabsolute
will not dynamical centers our component at all states
- To properly center the component in the page, you should use
Flexbox
orGrid
layout. You can read more about centering in CSS here 📚.
- For this demonstration we use css
Grid
to center the component
body { min-height: 100vh; display: grid; place-items: center; }
- Now remove these styles, after removing you can able to see the changes
.card { position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); }
- Now your component has been properly centered.
.
I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !
Happy coding!

Hi @ernestoacosta1086 👋🏻,
Good job on your first submission! You've replicated the design quite closely and your CSS is written cleanly. Well done!
In terms of best practices, I would suggest:
- You should look into using semantic HTML elements to improve accessibility. For example,
<div class="card">
is better replaced with<main class="card">
to specify it is the main content of the page. - You should avoid using
px
to specify lengths in your layouts. Useem
orrem
so that the layout is responsive to changing font sizes. - There are better ways to center
div
s in modern CSS. The most common ones use eitherflex
orgrid
. - Consider using custom properties for colours, for better code maintainability.
Cheers!
