Hi, well done.
Here are some tips to improve your solution - I hope they are clear and helpful :)
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 alt text should be written naturally, without using
-
between the words. 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." -
Headings should always be in order, so you never start with a
<h3>
. I would change the heading to a<h2>
- a page should only have one<h1>
, reserved for the main heading. As this is a card heading, it would likely not be the main heading on a page with several components. -
Change
.attribution
to a<footer>
.
CSS:
-
Including a CSS Reset at the top is good practice.
-
To replicate the design, use the style guide to find the correct
background-color
. -
I recommend adding a bit of
padding
, for example16px
, on thebody
, to ensure the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens. -
On the
body
, changeheight: 100%
tomin-height: 100svh
- this way, the content will not get cut off if it grows beneath the viewport. Removealign-content: center
, andfont-weight: 400
, which is the default value. -
Remove the margin on the card.
-
Remove all widths and heights in
px
. Setting fixed sizes can easily cause overflow, and should be avoided 95% of the time. -
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. -
Since all of the text should be centered, you only need to set
text-align: center
on the body, and remove it elsewhere. The children will inherit the value. -
On the image, add
height: auto
,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. It also needs some rounded corners, so addborder-radius: 10px
.
