    Hi there 👋. Good job on completing the challenge ! I have some feedback for you if you want to improve your code.

    HTML:

    • Use the <main> tag to wrap all the main content of the page instead of the <div> tag. With this semantic element you can improve the accessibility of your page.
    • Use the <footer> tag to wrap the footer of the page instead of the <div class="attribution">. The <footer> element contains information about the author of the page, the copyright, and other legal information.
    • You could use the <del> tag to indicate the price that was before the discount. Additionally, you can use a sr-only class to describe the discount. This will help screen reader users to understand that the price was discounted.

    Example:

    <del><span class="sr-only">Old price: </span>$169.99</del>
    
    • You can use the <picture> tag when you have different versions of the same image. Using the <picture> tag will help you to load the correct image for the user's device saving bandwidth and improving performance. You can read more about this here.

    Example:

    <picture>
    	<source media="(min-width: 600px)" srcset="./images/image-product-desktop.jpg ">
    	<img src="./images/image-product-mobile.jpg" alt="{your alt text goes here}">
    </picture>
    
    • The alt attribute is used to provide a text description of the image which is useful for screen reader users, assistive technology users, and search engine optimization. Add the alt attribute to the <img> tag with the product.

    CSS:

    • Instead of using pixels in font-size, use relative units like em or rem. The font-size in absolute units like pixels does not scale with the user's browser settings. This can cause accessibility issues for users who have set their browser to use a larger font size. You can read more about this here.

    I hope you find it useful! 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great!

    Happy coding!

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.
