Design comparison
Solution retrospective
I am using the background-image: url("images/image-product-desktop.jpg");
css property for displaying the image both in desktop and mobile view. Is it considered bad practice since it causes accessibility issues ?
Thanks for the feedback !

Hi @OignonFugace ๐, good job completing this challenge! ๐
I like this solution for the challenge. Here are a few suggestions I've made that you can consider in the future if you're looking to improve the solution further:
-
In this challenge, you should not use the background property to set the image because this image has semantic meaning. Use the CSS background property if the image is not part of the content.
-
You can use a <picture> tag when you need to change an image in different viewports. Using this tag will prevent the browser from loading both images, saving bandwidth and preventing you from utilizing a media query to modify the image.
Example:
<picture> <source media="(max-width: 750px)" srcset="./images/image-product-mobile.jpg"> <img src="./images/image-product-desktop.jpg" alt="your_alt_text"> </picture>
- You could use the <del> tag to display the old price:
<del class="prices-item"> <span class="sr-only">Old price: </span>$169.99 </del>
Note that I added the <span> with the
sr-only
class to thedel
element, this will provide more information about what your old price is about.The
sr-only
class is a class that you can add to hide content visually but is only visible to screen-readers.I hope those tips will help you.
Good job, and happy coding!
