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

I think I've figured out how to use the Google fonts downloaded directly into the project.

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

I wanted to avoid putting a max-width on the "learning" tag, so I ended up finding “align-items: flex-start”. It seemed coherent here.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
  1. I find that there are some repetitive elements in the CSS, and I didn't know how to factor it (or even if you should or shouldn't for this kind of case).

  2. Is the "align-items: flex-start" ok here? (file "style.css", line 148 on the first version)

  3. Is it ok for the structure of the index.html? for example the use of the "article" tag, or the tag, or the tag with class for the publication date?

Thank you very much!

    Good use of semantic HTML. I notice there's no description of your image in the alt="", I also see that you haven't customized the README.md file.

    About your question no.2, I think a simple way to solve that would be text-align: left.

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.
