  Hi @tcmaraist, 👋

  Great job on the project so far! Below are a few suggestions to enhance the semantics, responsiveness, and readability of your code. Let’s walk through them one by one with simple examples for clarity:

  ---

  1. Centering the Card to the Screen 🌟

  Currently, the card class is centered using margin-top, which doesn’t adapt well to different screen sizes. A better approach is to refactor the body CSS as follows:

  Refactored Code:

  .body {
      background-color: #d5e1ef;
      display: flex;
      flex-direction: column;
      justify-content: center;
      align-items: center;
      font-family: "Outfit", serif;
      min-height: 100vh; /* Ensures the content fills the entire screen height */
  }
  
  .card {
      height: auto; /* Let the content define the height */
      width: 100%; /* Make the card fluid */
      max-width: 320px; /* Maintain a maximum width for readability */
      border-radius: 2%;
      background-color: white;
      display: flex;
      flex-direction: column;
      align-items: center;
      text-align: center; /* Fixed typo: tex-align -> text-align */
  }
  

  This change ensures the card is vertically and horizontally centered, even on smaller screens. Imagine reading a business card: you want it perfectly centered for easy focus.

  2. Avoid Using Fixed Heights for the Card 🏗️

  Setting a fixed height property limits flexibility. For instance, if you add more content or increase padding, the card might overflow. Instead, let the inner elements decide the height by using padding and margins.

  Refactored Code:

  .card {
      padding: 20px; /* Add padding to manage spacing */
      height: auto; /* Dynamic height adjustment */
      width: 100%;
      max-width: 320px; /* Ensures responsiveness */
      border-radius: 2%;
      background-color: white;
      display: flex;
      flex-direction: column;
      align-items: center;
      text-align: center;
  }
  

  Think of this like resizing a box based on what you’re putting inside it — the box adjusts dynamically, rather than spilling over or leaving empty space.

  3. Make the Card Responsive 🖥️

  Using a fixed width (e.g., width: 320px) can break the layout on smaller or larger screens. Switching to max-width makes the card fluid and adaptive.

  Example:

  On mobile devices, the card will shrink proportionally instead of staying fixed at 320px.

  Refactored Code:

  .card {
      width: 100%; /* Fluid width */
      max-width: 320px; /* Restricts to a reasonable maximum */
  }

  4. Use Semantic Tags for Better Accessibility 🎯

  The p tag is currently being used for the card’s main heading. Since it conveys the primary purpose of the card, an h1, h2, or h3 tag would be more appropriate. Semantic tags improve accessibility for screen readers and provide better document structure.

  Current Code:

  <p class="card-title">
      Improve your front-end skills by building projects
  </p>
  

  Suggested Code:

  <h2 class="card-title">
      Improve your front-end skills by building projects
  </h2>
  

  Imagine a search engine or screen reader trying to understand the card. Using an h2 signals, "This is important content!" — just like a bold heading in a newspaper article.

  ---

  Summary ✅

  1. Centering: Use min-height: 100vh for the body and remove margin-top from the card.
  2. Dynamic Height: Avoid fixed heights; let inner elements control the size.
  3. Responsiveness: Replace width with max-width.
  4. Semantic Tags: Replace the p tag with a heading tag (h2) for better accessibility and structure.

  Keep up the great work, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions! 🚀
