Solution retrospective

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

I finished the majority of this project in under an hour. I also learned how to change the cursor in a hover state!

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

Getting the spacing right right between the elements. I didn't have the design file, but used pixel perfect extension to get it really close. I end up playing with the margins of the elements but I wonder if there is a better way to figure it out faster.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Is there away I could have made this design responsive for mobile without media queries?

    Hello there!

    Congrats on completing the challenge! āœ…

    Your solution looks great!

    šŸ“Œ It's recommended to use semantic HTML elements like <ul> and <li> for creating lists. This ensures that your code is more accessible, maintainable, and semantically meaningful.

    Here's and example on how you can refactor your code:

    After Refactoring

    <ul class="list-container">
    <li><a href="#">Github</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Frontend Mentor</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">LinkedIn</a></li>
    ...
</ul>

    By using <ul> and <li>, you convey the structure of your content more clearly, making it easier for screen readers and search engines to understand. Additionally, it aligns with best practices for HTML semantics.

    I hope you find this helpful!

    Keep up the excellent work!
