Solution retrospective


Hello this is my first Frontend Mentor challenge, i had trouble with overflow of text out of the div. I would appreciate some tips how to fix that. The only solution I found out was min-height : 0 but I'm not sure if that is the right way and whether it completely fixed it. . I would appreciate every feedback.

    Regarding your question about overflow, this is happening because you restricted the size (both height and width) of the container that you're using, and text is trying to squeeze until there is no more space available and it overflows. Remove this constraint on either width or height, and allow the div to grow with the content. Next focus on the size of the content so that it allows you to match the preview. U can read a more detailed explanation at developer.mozilla.org - sizing items

    But as I see it, once you do the above, you're container will no longer align in the center, this is because of how you're centering the div instead of top: 0, left: 0, right: 0, bottom: 0, and height: 60vh, maybe try one of these cool methods w3schools - css align.

    Good luck!

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.
