Responsive Product preview card component using HTML and CSS
Design comparison
Solution retrospective
For me I found the image change method a little struggling. You have to display one image for the desktop preview and the other for the mobile preview, this was little difficult, and I was not getting it. Then I remembered the "display: none" property and added it. And then it worked very well.

👾Hello @Girishbanua, Congratulations on completing this challenge!
Your solution its almost done and I’ve some tips to help you to improve it:
Don’t use
id
to give the style of your elements, it's not a good idea becauseid
is a too specific selector used forforms
and Javascript code. Instead, useclass
for styling and let theid
for much specific stuff. It's also not advisable to use IDs as CSS selectors because if another element in the page uses the same/similar style, you would have to write the same CSS again. Even if you don't have more than one element with that style right now, it might come later.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>
