My approach to this was first to set up the page's overall HTML structure, then style it using CSS based on the mobile view.

Any feedback appreciated!

Hey there! 👋 Here are some suggestions to help improve your code:

  • FEM Best practice ✅, before moving on to the next challenge, always check your FEM report (It provides value information), to see what is incorrect and update your code with it so that you would not make the same mistake over again. This should be the first thing that should be done ⚠️ right after submitting the challenge.
  • Every site should ALWAYS have ✅ a main element not only for semantic purposes but also to help assistive technology find the main content of your content. For this challenge, it will serves as the component’s container ⚠️.

More Info: 📚

MDN Main Element

  • The alt tag description for the “QR image” needs to be improved upon ⚠️. Its needs to tell screen reader users what it is and where it will take them to when they scan it.
  • The "Improve your front-end skill by building projects" is a heading ⚠️ in this component, so should be wrapped in an heading element.
  • Change ⚠️ width to max-width in your component’s container to make it responsive.

If you have any questions or need further clarification, feel free to reach out to me.

Happy Coding! 🤖

Hey there! Great job completing your first challenge! 🎊

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

HTML 📄:

  • Instead of using the <div> tag for your containers, try using some semantic HTML to provide more meaning to it, for better SEO. For example, instead of using <div> you could use the <main> or <section> tag. For the element with the classname attribution you could use the <footer> tag.
  • If an <img> like in this case the QR-code, leads to a website or links to someplace else, try to provide a more descriptive text of that in your ALT text, for example: QR code that leads to frontendmentor.io

CSS 🎨:

  • To make your solution responsive for different devices and screen widths, you can create a media query inside your CSS file and set the breaking point (i.e. the moment your media query gets triggered based on the width of the viewport). For example: @media (max-width: 375px) { ***Place your CSS code here, just like you would in a regular CSS file***}.

For more information on this topic, you can read the following article: Media queries 📘

I hope you find my suggestions useful, and above all: the solution you provided is very good!

Keep it up and happy coding! 😃
