👾Hi @sarahwylie, congratulations on your solution!👋 Welcome to the Frontend Mentor Coding Community!
Great solution and a great start! From what I saw you’re on the right track. I’ve few suggestions for you that you can consider adding to your code:
- The box-shadow is a bit too strong, this is due the
opacity
andblur
. The secret to create a perfect and smooth shadow is to have low values foropacity
and increaseblur
try this value instead:box-shadow: 12px 7px 20px 6px rgb(57 75 84 / 8%);
If you’re not familiar to box-shadow you can use this site to create the shadow design and then just drop the code into the CSS: https://html-css-js.com/css/generator/box-shadow/
- Add a margin of around
margin: 20px
to avoid the card touching the screen edges while it scales down. - Use relative units as
rem
orem
instead ofpx
to improve your performance by resizing fonts between different screens and devices. These units are better to make your website more accessible. REM does not just apply to font size, but to all sizes as well.
Here's my solution for this challenge if you wants to see how I build it: https://www.frontendmentor.io/solutions/qr-code-component-vanilla-cs-js-darklight-mode-nS2aOYYsJR
✌️ I hope this helps you and happy coding!

Hi Sarah Wylie, how are you?
I really liked the result of your project, but I have some tips that I think you will enjoy:
- every Html document must contain the main tag, so we can identify the main content, to fix this, wrap all the content with the main tag. HTML5 landmark elements are used to improve navigation experience on your site for users of assistive technology.
- Consider using rem for font size .If your web content font sizes are set in absolute units, such as pixels, the user will not be able to re-size the text or control the font size based on their needs. Relative units “stretch” according to the screen size and/or user’s preferred font size, and work on a large range of devices.
The rest is great!
I hope it helps... 👍
