    Hi, @00YellowLemon!! Congrats on completing the challenge!! 👏🏻

    The box-shadow has the following syntax:

    • box-shadow: <offset-x> <offset-y> <blur-radius> <spread-radius> <color>

    In your code, you defined it as box-shadow: 0 4px 8px gray;

    The box shadow appears from the side too, because of the blur, this is normal. But you set the color too dark, this intensifies the shadow. To make the shadow softer, just apply a color with some transparency, like: box-shadow: 0 4px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.15);

    Now, if you want to reduce the box-shadow on the sides, you will have to add the fourth parameter of the property, the <spread-radius> can expand the shadow, but if the value is negative it will shrink the shadow.

    In this way, changing to box-shadow: 0 16px 16px -8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1); you will get a result with a bigger shadow at the bottom and a very soft shadow at the sides.

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.
