What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I have made a concerted effort to optimize the CSS to the best of my ability.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I recently discovered that we can modify the cursor using cursor: url('file location');, which was new to me. I experimented with this feature and implemented it in this code.

If you want to make your card responsive with ease you can use this technique:

.card {
width: 90%;
max-width: 37.5rem;
}

On the smaller screens card will be 90% of the parent (here body), but as soon as the card will be 37.5rem (600px) it will lock with this size.

Also to put the card in the center I advise you to use this code snippet:

.container {
display: grid;
place-items: center;
}

Hope you found this comment helpful 💗💗💗

Good job and keep going 😁😊😉

Awesome job tackling this challenge! You’re doing amazing, and I wanted to share a couple of suggestions that might help refine your approach…

Using a <main> tag inside the <body> of your HTML is a best practice because it clearly identifies the main content of your page. This helps with accessibility and improves how search engines understand your content.
I would put these into a <ul> <li>, and the text should be wrapped with a <a> so it is accessible with a keyboard using the tab key, Using an <a> tag for navigation is semantically correct, improves accessibility for screen readers, and ensures consistent behavior across browsers, unlike a <button> or a <div> not intended for links.

For future project, You could downloading and host your own fonts using @font-face improves website performance by reducing external requests, provides more control over font usage, ensures consistency across browsers, enhances offline availability, and avoids potential issues if third-party font services become unavailable.

I think you can benefit from using a naming convention like BEM (Block, Element, Modifier) is beneficial because it makes your CSS more organized, readable, and easier to maintain. BEM helps you clearly understand the purpose of each class, avoid naming conflicts, and create reusable components, leading to a more scalable codebase. For more details BEM,

You’re doing fantastic! I hope these tips help you as you continue your coding journey. Stay curious and keep experimenting—every challenge is an opportunity to learn. Have fun, and keep coding with confidence! 🌟
