Using the role attribute on
<main>
is technically valid but redundant because<main>
already carries the appropriate role for accessibility and semantic meaning. -
Setting
font-size: 62.5%
can affect accessibility by reducing the default browser font size, potentially making text harder to read for users with visual impairments. This does make it easier to work out the relative units but at what cost? -
Your heading elements
<h2><h1>
Heading elements should be in sequentially-descending order (e.g.,<h1>
,<h2>
,<h3>
) to create a clear content structure, improving accessibility and SEO. Skipping levels or using them out of order can confuse screen readers, affect search engine rankings, and make your content harder to understand. -
Using
max-width: 100%
ormin-width: 100%
is more responsive than justwidth: 100%
because they allow elements to adjust better to different screen sizes. To learn more, check out this article: responsive-meaning. -
Developers should avoid using pixels (
px
) because they are a fixed size and don't scale well on different devices. Instead, userem
orem
, which are relative units that adjust based on user settings, making your design more flexible, responsive, and accessible. For more information check out this, Why font-size must NEVER be in pixels or this video by Kevin Powell CSS em and rem explained.- Another great resource for px to rem converter. -
Using
rem
orem
units in@media
queries is better thanpx
because they are relative units that adapt to user settings, like their preferred font size. This makes your design more responsive and accessible, ensuring it looks good on different devices and respects user preferences.
