Any feedbacks are welcome. I have some questions regarding background and fontawesome icons. 1- I tried to position my background exactly as the design, and it worked but only when I did background-size:contain. The issue is using contain, when my browser got bigger, but not big enough for desktop size yet, the background doesn't cover the whole page. I hope I explained this well enough.

2- Are we still able to use fontawesome with CDN now? or we can only use with Kit? (version 5 and up)

3- Any suggestions on how I can clean up my codes? Any recommended articles/ videos on this matter?

Thank you in advance for anyone's help. I love to learn so throw me some feedbacks please :D

    Hello, Nguyen! 👋

    Great work on this challenge! Your solution looks pretty good! 😀 It's great that you wrap all the page content with landmark elements! Well done! 👍

    Regarding your questions.

    1. I notice that it use background-size: cover and it works well. I used background-size: cover and it worked well. However, I had background-position: center right; and it looked similar to the design. You can see my solution if you want.
    2. Yes, you can visit cdnjs.com and grab the link tag for the Font Awesome for version six and below. But, I would recommend downloading the needed icon from the Font Awesome website instead of importing the entire icons. It is going to boost the performance of the site.

    For the third question, here are some suggestions from me.

    • Alternative text for images should not contain any words that related to image (e.g. picture, photo, logo, icon, graphic, avatar, etc). It's already an image element so the screen reader will pronounce it as an image.
    • Not all images need alternative text. In this case, I would recommend leaving the alt="" empty so that the screen reader users won't have to listen to unrelated content.

    A11y checklist would be a great resource to make your site accessible. Make sure that everytime you submit any solution you check as many items as possible.

    That's it! Hope this helps. 😊

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.
