  Hey, great job!

  A few things that could be improved upon:

  HTML:

  • Every webpage needs a <main> that wraps all of the content, except for <header> and footer>. This is vital for accessibility, as it helps screen readers identify a page's "main" content. Wrap the card in a <main>.

  • The image has meaning, so it must have proper alt text. Write something short and descriptive, without including words like "image" or "photo". Screen readers start announcing images with "image", so an alt text of "image of qr code" would be read like this: "image, image of qr code". The alt text must also say where it leads(the frontendmentor website). A good alt text would be "QR code leading to the Frontend Mentor website."

  CSS:

  • Make a habit of including a modern CSS Reset at the top of the stylesheet.

  • I recommend adding a bit of padding, for example 16px, on the body, to ensure the card doesn't touch the edges on small screens.

  • Move font-family to the body.

  • On the body, change height to min-height: 100svh - this way, the content will not get cut off if it grows beneath the viewport.

  • Remove the width on the card.

  • max-width on the card should be in rem. Around 20rem works well.

  • Paragraphs have a default value of font-weight: 400, so there is no need to declare it.

  • On the image, add display: block, height: auto and change width to max-width: 100% - the max-width prevents it from overflowing its container. Without this, an image would overflow if its intrinsic size is wider than the container. max-width: 100% makes the image shrink to fit inside its container.

  Keep up the good work :)
