  Hello there 👋. Good job on completing the challenge !

  I have some feedback for you if you want to improve your code.

  HTML 📄:

  • Use the <main> tag to wrap all the main content of the page instead of the <div class="testimonials"> tag. With this semantic element you can improve the accessibility of your page.

  • You must use a level-one heading (h1) even though this is not a full-page challenge. You can create an '<h1>' element within your 'main' element that will be hidden visually but visible and readable by screen readers. The class "sr-only" hides content visually and here are the styles to copy. e.g.: <h1 class="sr-only">Testimonials grid section</h1>

  • The image with the testimonial author is not a decoration, you need to provide an alternative text to tell the user who is the author of the testimonial, its recommended to use the author's name as the alt attribute value. e.g. alt="Daniel Clifford"

    If you want to learn more about the alt attribute, you can read this article. 📘.

  • To improve the semantics of your code you should use the <figure> and <blockquote> tags to wrap the testimonials, with this, you will be able to encapsulate the author and the citation of the testimonial.

    Example:

    <figure>
       <blockquote>
          <p>"Example of a testimonial"</p>
       </blockquote>
       <figcaption>
          <p>Example of the author</p>
       </figcaption>
    </figure>
    

    You can read more about the <figure> and <blockquote> tags with this two links:

    1. Quotations, Citations, and Blockquotes | CSS-Tricks
    2. Quotations | MDN Web docs

  CSS 🎨:

  • Instead of using pixels in font-size, use relative units like em or rem. The font-size in absolute units like pixels does not scale with the user's browser settings. This can cause accessibility issues for users who have set their browser to use a larger font size. You can read more about this here 📘.

  I hope you find it useful! 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great!

  Happy coding!

  Hey there! 👋 Here are some suggestions to help improve your code:

  • To properly center ✅ your content to your page, you will want to add the following to your body (this method uses CSS Grid):

  body {
      min-height: 100vh;
      display: grid;
      place-content: center;
  }
  

  More Info: 📚

  • Your CSS Reset is being underutilized. 😢 To fully maximize 💯 it, you will want to add more to it. Here are some examples that you can freely use 😁: Josh Comeau Reset Eric Meyer Reset

  • Implement a "Mobile First" approach 📱 > 🖥

  Mobile devices are now the dominant 👑 way in which people browse the web, it is critical that your website/content looks perfect 💯 on all mobile devices.

  • For improved accessibility 📈 for your content, it is best practice ✅ to use em for media-queries. Using this unit gives users the ability to scale elements up and down, relative to a set value.

  If you have any questions or need further clarification, feel free to reach out to me.

  Happy Coding! 🎆🎊🪅
