Solution retrospective


Challenge done ! I didn't use the world time API because I find it super slow and doesn't have HTTPS Connection (their HTTPS site is down). Instead, I used DayJS, some functions and the 2nd API to display all the information.

Same for the quote block, I used my own backend API made 2 months ago in a MERN project. Backend was made with Node.js / Graphql and was deployed on Heroku. You can see the live site here : https://mindquotes-app.vercel.app/ I don't know if it's just me but front-end or back-end on Heroku seem a bit slow so I deployed the client side on Vercel.

A React JS version is WIP.

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.
