I found it difficult trying to figure out how to center the card that holds the QR Code in the center of the vertical axis.

Hello there πŸ‘‹. You did a good job!

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

HTML πŸ“„:

  • Wrap the page's whole main content in the <main> tag.
  • If your code has different sections that have a specific like a , , sections or footer, it’s a good practice to enclose those parts with HTML5 landmarks. For example, you could use a <footer> tag to wrap a footer section.
  • The heading order is important in the html structure so try to always start your headings and/or titles with an <h1> tag and then you can decrease by one if you need to use more headings in your html code.

CSS🎨:

You can use grid or flexbox to center the content no matter the viewport size. Since I use grid to achieve such purpose, you can do the following:

body {
min-height: 100vh;
display: grid;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}

As I said, you can use flexbox to center the content and it will work as well.

body {
min-height: 100vh;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}

I hope you find it useful! 😁😁 Above all, the solution you submitted is greatπŸ‘Œ!

Happy <coding /> 😎!

Hello Anthony!!, congrats on completing this challenge. Here are some tips to make your code better.

  • To center your card horizontally and vertically, you need to wrap all your contents in a container, preferrably a div with the class name card or whatever works for you. You can then simply make use of flexbox on it's direct parent which in your case will be the <body>. Your code will look like so: body { display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; min-height: 100vh; // This will make your card sit in the middle of your viewport without vertical scrolling. padding: 3rem 2rem; // Add padding on it's direct parent to avoid your container from touching the top, bottom and sides of the screen for mobile view. }

  • Your card should equally contain two divs: one for the image and another for the text i.e card-image and card-text respectively. You can then use flexbox to arrange them like so: .card { display: flex; flex-direction: column; }

  • Try to add classes as much as possible. The specificity will make your life easier as a frontend developer.

  • Developers seldom use tags like strong. Make use of the header tags like <h1>, <h2> and the likes and add appropriate font-size and font-weights with their colors. Your code must contain at least one of these in the right order.

  • Always apply this reset for images: img { display: block; max-width: 100%; } This will keep your image inside its container at full width. Look up other css resets and apply them. Here's one: css resets

  • Please pay attention to the accessibility and validation reports on frontend mentor.

I hope you find this helpful. Happy coding.
