  Amazing job with this! You’re making fantastic progress. Here are some small tweaks that might take your solution to the next level…

  • This does not matter that much at this stage but something to be mindful of for SEO(Search Engine Optimisation), <meta> description tag missing.

  • Heading elements should be in sequentially-descending order (e.g., <h1>, <h2>, <h3>) to create a clear content structure, improving accessibility and SEO. Your goes from <h2> <h5>, Skipping levels or using them out of order can confuse screen readers, affect search engine rankings, and make your content harder to understand.

  • You should wrap your <li> in <a> Like this <li><a>GitHub</a></li> Makes it more accessible with the tab function,

  <ul>
    <li>GitHub</li>
    <li>Frontend Mentor</li>
    <li>LinkedIn</li>
    <li>Twitter</li>
     <li>Instagram</li>
              </ul>
  

  • Using max-width: 100% or min-width: 100% is more responsive than just width: 100% because they allow elements to adjust better to different screen sizes. To learn more, check out this article: responsive-meaning.

  • Developers should avoid using pixels (px) because they are a fixed size and don't scale well on different devices. Instead, use rem or em, which are relative units that adjust based on user settings, making your design more flexible, responsive, and accessible. For more information check out this, Why font-size must NEVER be in pixels or this video by Kevin Powell CSS em and rem explained.- Another great resource for px to rem converter.

  • Having a clear and descriptive alt text for images is important because it helps people who use screen readers understand the content, making your site more accessible. It also improves SEO, as search engines use alt text to understand the image's context, helping your site rank better, Check this out Write helpful Alt Text to describe images,

  • Using a full modern CSS reset is beneficial because it removes default browser styling, creating a consistent starting point for your design across all browsers. It helps avoid unexpected layout issues and makes your styles more predictable, ensuring a uniform appearance on different devices and platforms, check out this site for a Full modern reset

  • 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,

  • Using margin-inline: auto is better than margin: auto for centering elements horizontally because it is more precise. To center an element, set its width and apply margin-inline: auto; this will center it within its container., You can center the height by using this code snippet

    min-height: 100svh;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    flex-direction: column;
  

  I hope you found this advice helpful! Keep up the great work, and don’t forget to dive deeper into the details. You’re doing amazing, and I can’t wait to see what you create next. Happy coding! 🚀
