    Hello there 👋 I'm back to give some advice on your latest assignment :)

    I find interesting that you made yourself the -- " -- under the advices instead of using an image, you gain speed in loading the page, that's awesome!

    However, what you gain to load the page, you sadly lost it by reloading the page everytime we click the button. Would have been better to make onclick call a function that would have fetch a new advice and replace only the needed text on the page instead of reloading everything.

    Also with a wide screen, your main div would have benefits having a max-width ;)

    Keep going 💪

    Hi there,

    • put the quote inside a <blockquote> tag instead of h1 to be more semantic

    • check Html report to fix accessibility issues

    i hope this is helpful and goodluck!

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 1st-party linked stylesheets, and styles within <style> tags.

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.
