Solution retrospective


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

Using a package manager brings order to your project. You can install and use useful bundlers, formatters, linters, frameworks, and even other package managers. All this is recorded in your package.json, so you never lose track of your project. It is amazing!

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

Trying to learn about all these technologies all at once is overwhelming. But still, my biggest challenge in this project is how to markup the content correctly so that screen reader users don't get lost.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

If you see anything wrong with my code, especially with my HTML markup then please leave some feedback.

    This is missing the one essential functional element in the html. How would users access this blog when there is no link included? That is a critical fix needed.

    Once that's added, you will need to make the whole card clickable. Usually that's done with an absolutelg positioned pseudo element on the link.

    The other thing I notice is that you've used a h1 for the heading. But consider how this component would be used on a site. This kind of card would never be used to serve the main heading on a page, so you know it shouldn't have a h1. Use a lower importance heading level like h2 instead.

    The last recommendation is to use rem not px for the components max width. This is to ensure the layout scales correctly for all users including those who have a different text size setting. Currently using pixels could lead to large text being squished into a very narrow card.

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.
