    Hello @info1922 ,

    • For any decorative images, each img tag should have emptyalt=""and aria-hidden="true" attributes to make all web assistive technologies such as screen reader ignore those images. In this case, all images are decorative only.

    • swap the buttons for anchor tags. Clicking those "learn more" buttons would trigger navigation not do an action so button elements would not be right. And for future, it is essential if you include a button in a form element without specifying it's just a regular button, it defaults to a submit button., though, so it's a good idea to make a habit of specifying the type.

    • you can add a <h1> with class="sr-only" (Hidden visually, but present for assistive tech). and use h2 instaed h1.

    .sr-only {
    	border: 0 !important;
    	clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px) !important;
    	-webkit-clip-path: inset(50%) !important;
    		clip-path: inset(50%) !important; 
    	height: 1px !important;
    	margin: -1px !important;
    	overflow: hidden !important;
    	padding: 0 !important;
    	position: absolute !important;
    	width: 1px !important;
    	white-space: nowrap !important;            
    }
    
    
    • using vh (viewport height) units to allow the body to set a minimum height value based upon the full height of the viewport.This also allows the body to to grow taller if the content outgrows the visible page.

    body { min-height: 100vh; }

    • border-radius and overflow hidden to the container that wraps the three cards.so you don't have to set it to individual corners.

    • Never use px for font-size.

    • using widths in percentage. Not a great idea as you're losing control of the layout

    • You can use flexbox properties and min-height: 100vh; to the body to center the component on the middle of the page.(no need for padding ).

    • an explicit width is not a good way . Remove the width from the main component and change it to max width instead. That will let it shrink a little when it needs to.

    Overall , your solution is good . Hopefully this feedback helps

How does the accessibility report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use axe-core to run an automated audit of your code.

This picks out common accessibility issues like not using semantic HTML and not having proper heading hierarchies, among others.

This automated audit is fairly surface level, so we encourage to you review the project and code in more detail with accessibility best practices in mind.

How does the CSS report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use stylelint to run an automated check on the CSS code.

We've added some of our own linting rules based on recommended best practices. These rules are prefixed with frontend-mentor/ which you'll see at the top of each issue in the report.

The report will audit all CSS, SCSS and Less files in your repository.

How does the HTML validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use html-validate to run an automated check on the HTML code.

The report picks out common HTML issues such as not using headings within section elements and incorrect nesting of elements, among others.

Note that the report can pick up “invalid” attributes, which some frameworks automatically add to the HTML. These attributes are crucial for how the frameworks function, although they’re technically not valid HTML. As such, some projects can show up with many HTML validation errors, which are benign and are a necessary part of the framework.

How does the JavaScript validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use eslint to run an automated check on the JavaScript code.

The report picks out common JavaScript issues such as not using semicolons and using var instead of let or const, among others.

The report will audit all JS and JSX files in your repository. We currently do not support Typescript or other frontend frameworks.
