Design comparison
Solution retrospective
•Did I over do it with my CSS?
•Was it the best method to use position absolute and relative for everything?
This was my first solo project with only a few google references, how did I do? I know it's not perfect, what could I improve on next time when working with positioning and inline-blocks? I started with flexbox but I could not make that work.

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 🎨:
- Looks like the component has not been centered properly. So let me explain, How you can easily center the component without using
margin
orabsolute
.
- We don't need to use
margin
andabsolute
to center the component both horizontally & vertically. Because usingmargin
orabsolute
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
.parent { position: relative; top: 0; left: 0; margin: 100px auto; } .white { position: relative; top: 0; left: 0; position: relative; margin: 0 auto; } .blue { position: absolute; top: 20px; left: 30px; right: 30px; margin: 0 auto; } .qr { position: absolute; top: 35px; left: 30px; right: 30px; margin: 0 auto; } .parent-1 { position: absolute; top: 250px; left: 30px; right: 30px; margin: 100px auto; }
- Now your component has been properly centered
.
I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !
Happy coding!

I was having lots of trouble trying to align everything. I am still new to this. I'm not too familiar with vh so I will have to practice more but I greatly appreciate this solution! :)
