    It looks great, very close to the design, on mobile screens I think you use too much "white space" around the edges.

    Since you are using pure CSS, it will be better to use class name conventions like BEM for example, to avoid collision with class names, and to have better readability and maintainability or you can use CSS modules to scope the styles.

    Keep your CSS organized, may I suggest alphabetical order and group related properties together to avoid these mistakes:

    .submit-msg-box {
    
        display: block; # you set display property here
    
        position: absolute;
        background-color:  hsl(187, 24%, 22%);
        color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);
        padding: 1rem;
        border-radius: 12px;
        transform: translate(50%);
        right: 50%;
        top: 2%;
        opacity: 1;
        visibility: visible;
    
        display: flex; # you set display property here too
    
        flex-direction: column;
        gap: 0.57rem;
    }
    

    Following what I suggested(the comments are not necessary):

    .submit-msg-box {
        # layout
    
        display: flex;
        flex-direction: column;
    
        position: absolute;
        right: 50%;
        top: 2%;
    
        transform: translate(50%);
    
        # dimensions
    
        border-radius: 12px;
        gap: 0.57rem;
        padding: 1rem;
        
        # visuals
    
        background-color:  hsl(187, 24%, 22%);
        color: hsl(0, 0%, 100%);
        
        opacity: 1;
        visibility: visible;
    
       # fonts...    
    }
    

    Do not put your clean up functions inside conditionals:

    useEffect(() => {
            setIsVisible(true);
            if (formData) {
                const timer = setTimeout(() => {
                    setIsVisible(false);
                    onClose()
                }, 5000);
                return () => clearTimeout(timer);
            }
        }, [formData, onClose]); 
    

    May I suggest this way:

    useEffect(() => {
            let timer;
            setIsVisible(true);
            if (formData) {
                timer = setTimeout(() => {
                    setIsVisible(false);
                    onClose()
                }, 5000);            
            }
    
            return () => clearTimeout(timer);
        }, [formData, onClose]);

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.
