Hi, Maruf👋. Congratulations on successfully completing the challenge! 🎉
Your solution looks great, and you've done a fantastic job overall! However, here are some small suggestions after taking a look at your code to make it even better that might interest you:
HTML:
- The
<main>
element should wrap around the entire component. Using the<header>
,<main>
,<footer>
elements provide structural clarity, accessibility improvements, SEO benefits, and facilitates responsive design. It helps you create well-organized, maintainable, and user-friendly web pages. - It's important to note that the
alt
text should be descriptive but concise, conveying the essential information without being overly long. It should provide a meaningful summary of the image's content and purpose. (Eg: alt="QR Code for frontendmentor.io") - Starting with
<h1>
and working your way down the heading levels<h2>, <h3>
etc. helps ensure that your document has a clear and consistent hierarchy. Source
<body> <main class="container"> <div class="card"> <img class="card-image" src="images/image-qr-code.png" alt="QR Code for frontendmentor.io"> <h1 class="card-heading">Improve your front-end skills by building projects</h1> <p class="card-description">Scan the QR code to visit Frontend Mentor and take your coding skills to the next level</p> </div> </main> <footer><div class="attribution">...</div></footer> </body>
CSS:
- You can use the
max-width
,margin
andpadding
to control the width and position of your elements. - Percentages are often used to define widths, heights, and margins. They are relative to the parent element's size. For example,
width: 50%
would make an element half the width of its parent. For example:
.container { min-height: 100vh; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; } .card { max-width: 20rem; background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%); border-radius: 0.938rem; text-align: center; } .card-image { width: 90%; border-radius: 0.625rem; margin: 5%; } .card-heading { margin: 2% 5%; padding: 0 5%; } .card-description { margin: 5% 5% 12%; padding: 0 5%; }

I think your solution turned out pretty good. I also tried to do it that way when I went to do mine but I gave up when I went to see the other's solution hahaha. The only thing I would change is the texts, they have a margin on the right side. I solved it on mine by putting display: inline-block.
