qr code component using semantic tags, em and rem units
Design comparison
Solution retrospective
I used a couple of semantic tags, main and section. But I used a class on <main> and I nested a <div> within my section tag. I wasn't sure how to style them. If I should style the semantic or nest and style a div...
I also tried to strictly use em and rems. Rem on text and em on everything else. The only px I used was on a drop shadow.
Any advice as to how to properly use semantic html and nest divs? Or if my use of em and rems where okay?
I know this was a simple project, so hopefully I'm not over complicating. just trying to build good habits.

To center .card on the page using flexbox or grid instead of margin:
- USING FLEXBOX: add min-height:100vh; display: flex; align-items: center: justify-content: center; to the body
body{ min-height: 100vh; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; }
- USING GRID: add min-height:100vh; display: grid place-items: center to the body
body{ min-height: 100vh; display: grid; place-items: center; }

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
orpadding
.
- We don't need to use
margin
andpadding
to center the component both horizontally & vertically. Because usingmargin
orpadding
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
.card { margin: 10em auto }
- Now your component has been properly centered
.
I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !
Happy coding!
