👾Hello @m-mohammad25, Congratulations on completing this challenge!
Your solution its almost done and I’ve some tips to help you to improve it:
1.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.2.Add a margin of around
margin: 20px
to avoid the card touching the screen edges while it scales down.3.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.4.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 withbackground-image
. Use it to place the images and make the change between mobile and desktop, instead of using adiv
orimg
and set the change in the css withdisplay: 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 devicemax-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 @m-mohammad25, some suggestions to improve you code:
- 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
Picture Element will allow your to switch between images in different breakpoints and makes your site load faster by saving bandwidth.
Here is an example of how it works: EXAMPLE
Syntax:
<picture> <source media="(min-width: )" srcset=""> <img src="" alt=""> </picture>
More Info:

-
Once you fix the image implementation, you will want to include an Alt text tag with them. Inside that Alt Tag you want to describe what the image is; they need to be readable. Assume you’re describing the image/icon to someone.
-
The name of the perfume , “Gabrielle Essence Eau De Parfum” is the most important content in your card so it should be wrapped in a Heading 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.
-
Your button needs to have
box-shadow
,cursor: pointer
and a:hover
.
Happy Coding! 👻🎃

The attribution section should be out of the top-parent container. Then use your flex-direction column to get everything in a column instead of a row.
Also, learn more about semantic UI for accessibility. This might help a bit https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_semantic_elements.asp to know what each tag does.
Check this out should tell you more about how to go about responsiveness. https://web.dev/learn/design/
I hope it does help a bit. Happy coding
