Responsive Product Card Design with CSS Flex

👾Hello @ikemefuna123, Congratulations on completing this challenge!

Your solution its almost done and I’ve some tips to help you to improve it:

Use the THE PICTURE TAG that is a shortcut to deal with the multiple images in this challenge. So you can use the <picture> tag instead of importing this as an <img> or using a div with background-image. Use it to place the images and make the change between mobile and desktop, instead of using a div or img and set the change in the css with display: none with the tag picture is more practical and easy. Note that for SEO / search engine reasons isn’t a better practice import this product image with CSS since this will make it harder to the image. Manage both images inside the <picture> tag and use the html to code to set when the images should change setting the device max-width depending of the device desktop + mobile.

Check the link for the official documentation for <picture> in W3 SCHOOLS: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_picture.asp

See the example below:

<picture>
  <source media="(max-width:650px)" srcset="./images/image-product-mobile.jpg">
  <img src="./images/image-product-desktop.jpg" alt="Gabrielle Parfum" style="width:auto;">
</picture>

Hey @ikemefuna123, some suggestions to improve you code:

• • The Alt Tag description for the image needs to be improved upon. You want to describe what the image is; they need to be readable. Assume you’re describing the image to someone.

• For this challenge you want to use the Picture Element not the Background Image Property. The Background Image Property is mainly used on decorative images NOT images that add value and serve a purpose.

Picture Element will allow your to switch between images in different breakpoints and makes your site load faster by saving bandwidth.

Syntax:

  <picture>
    <source media="(min-width: )" srcset="">
    <img src="" alt="">
  </picture>

• There should only be one heading in this challenge and thats for the Perfume’s Name. Everything else should be using a Paragraph Element.

• The old price is not being announced properly to screen readers. You want to wrap it in a Del Element and include a sr-only text explaining that this is the old price.

• The "Button" is created with the wrong elements. It needs to be Button Element so that when the users clicks on it (with the help of JS), the product gets added to the cart.

• 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.
