  Hello there 👋. Good job on completing the challenge !

  I have some suggestions about your code that might interest you.

  HTML 📄:

  • Use the <main> tag to wrap all the main content of the page instead of the <div> tag. With this semantic element you can improve the accessibility of your page.

  • Use the <footer> tag to wrap the footer of the page instead of the <div class="attribution">. The <footer> element contains information about the author of the page, the copyright, and other legal information.

  • Since this component involves scanning the QR code, the image is not a decoration, so it must have an alt attribute. The alt attribute should explain its purpose. e.g. QR code to frontendmentor.io

  • You should not use inline-CSS because it is not a good practice. Instead, you should use an external stylesheet to style your page. By doing this, you will be able to have a better organization of your code and will be able to understand it better.

  CSS 🎨:

  • Setting the font-size to 62.5% can attract compatibility issues with third-party libraries or plugins. You can read more about this with this two lectures:

  1. The Surprising Truth About Pixels and Accessibility - The 62.5% trick
  2. A comment on the 62.5% trick

  Credit to grace-snow and vanzasetia for pointing this out.

  • There is no need to set large margins, you can set a height of 100vh to the container and it should center correctly.

  I hope you find it useful! 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great!

  Happy coding!

  Replace<div class="card-container">with the main tag and <div class="attribution"> with the footer tag to fix the accessibility issues. click here for more on web-accessibility and semantic html. Add the alt attribute alt=" " to the img tag to fix the error issue, the value for the alt attribute is the description of the image.

  The body has a wrong background-color. Use the colors that were given in the styleguide.md found in the zip folder you downloaded

  To center .card-container page, add min-height:100vh; display: flex; align-items: center: justify-content: center; or min-height:100vh; display: grid place-items: center to the body.

  To center .card-container on the page using flexbox:
  body{
  min-height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  }
  

  To center .card-container on the page using grid:
  body{
  min-height: 100vh;
  display: grid;
  place-items: center;
  }
  

  Hope am helpful.

  Well done for completing this challenge. HAPPY CODING
