👾Hi @RaullPereira, 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:

Use <main> instead of a simple <div> this way you improve the semantics and accessibility showing which is the main block of content on this page. Remember that every page should have a <main> block and that <div> doesn't have any semantic meaning.
Replace the <h2> containing the main title with <h1> note that this title is the main heading for this page and every page needs one h1 to show which is the most important heading. Use the sequence h1 h2 h3 h4 h5 to show the hierarchy of your titles in the level of importance, never jump a level.
Add a margin of around margin: 20px to avoid the card touching the screen edges while it scales down.
Use relative units as rem or em instead of px 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!

Hey @RaullPereira, some suggestions to improve you code:

To give you HTML code structure, you want to set up your code in the following manner (only did parent containers):

  <body>
    <main>
      <article class="card-container”>
      </article>
    </main>
  </body>

The Main Element identifies the main content of the document.

While the Article Element will serve as the card’s container, because the card represents a complete, or self-contained, section of content that is, in principle, independently reusable.

More info:

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.
Change the width to max-width in your .card to make it responsive.
It is best practice to have separate files for you HTML and CSS code.

Happy Coding! 👻🎃
