HTML:
-
Every webpage needs a
<main>
that wraps all of the content, except for<header>
andfooter>
. This is vital for accessibility, as it helps screen readers identify a page's "main" section. Wrap the card in a<main>
. -
The image has meaning, so it must have proper alt text. Write something short and descriptive, without including words like "image" or "photo". Screen readers start announcing images with "image", so an alt text of "image of qr code" would be read like this: "image, image of qr code". The alt text must also say where it leads(the frontendmentor website). A good alt text would be "QR code leading to the Frontend Mentor website."
CSS:
-
Including a CSS Reset at the top is good practice.
-
box-sizing: border-box
should be set on all elements, using the universal selector*
:
* { box-sizing: border-box; }
-
Remember to specify a fallback font:
font-family: 'Outfit',sans-serif;
-
I recommend adding
1rem
ofpadding
on thebody
, to ensure the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens. -
On the
body
, changeheight
tomin-height
- this way, the content will not get cut off if it grows beneath the viewport. -
Move
font-family
tobody
. -
Remove the
width
andheight
inpx
on the card. We rarely want to give a component a fixed size, as we want it to grow and shrink according to the screen size. -
We do want to limit the width of the card, so it doesn't get too wide on larger screens. To solve this issue, give the card a
max-width
of around20rem
. -
font-size
must never be in px. This is a big accessibility issue, as it prevents the font size from scaling with the user's default setting in the browser. Use rem instead. -
letter-spacing
must also not be inpx
. You can useem
, where1em
equals the element's font size. -
regular
is not a valid value for thefont-weight
property. You don't need to set any font weight on the paragraph, as it should have its default value of400
. -
On the image, add
display: block
andmax-width: 100%
- the max-width prevents it from overflowing its container. Without this, an image would overflow if its intrinsic size is wider than the container.max-width: 100%
makes the image shrink to fit inside its container.
