Hey @oscarvajalmora, great job on this project!

Some suggestions to improve you code:

While having interactive content (cards, links, icons, buttons, etc…) can definitely make content less static, if not done properly, it can actually have negative effect on your users experience. By simply just applying a “hover” effect to your content, you’re assuming that every device is compatible with “hover” effects. Unfortunately, most devices are not. To provide your users a better experience, you can use the @media (hover: hover) . Now users that that are devices that are not “hover” compatible will be able to enjoy your content.

To help keep your CSS code organized and easier to use, I suggest implementing CSS Variables. This will come in handy when building large websites, using light/dark mode, etc…

It’ll look something like this:

:root {
  --primary-color: value;
  --secondary-color: value;
  --tertiary-color: value;
}

And to use the variables you’ll use the var() function. So it’ll look like this.

h1 {
color: var(—primary-color);
}

Heres are some articles regarding CSS Variables.

You can also take a look at my projects and see how I use it.

To make you content accessible to your users, it is a best to use rem/em instead of px for your CSS property values. For media queries, I definitely suggest using em for them. By using px your assuming that every users browser (mobile, tablet, laptop/desktop) is using a font size of 16px (this is the default size on browser). Em's will help with users whose default isn't 16px, which can sometimes cause the your content to overflow and negatively affect your layout.

Happy Coding!
