Hello Juan!
Your project looks great!
I noticed that you used
margin
to place the card in the middle of the page. Here's two very efficient ways to center the card:- You can apply this to the body (in order to work properly, you can't use position or margins):
body { min-height: 100vh; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; }
- Or you can apply this to the element you wanna center (works well with projects with only one centered element, like this one):
.element { position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 50%; transform: translate(-50%, -50%); }
I hope it helps!
Other than that, great job!

Hello there 👋. Good job on completing the challenge !
I have some suggestions about your code that might interest you.
HTML 🏷️:
- Use semantic elements such as
<main>
and<footer>
to improve accessibility and organization of your page.
- Always avoid skipping heading levels; Starting with <h1> and working your way down the heading levels (<h2>, <h3>, etc.) helps ensure that your document has a clear and consistent hierarchy. Source 📘
Alt text 📷:
- The
alt
attribute should not contain the words "image", "photo", or "picture", because the image tag already conveys that information.
-
The
alt
attribute should explain the purpose of the image. Uppon scanning the QR code, the user will be redirected to the frontendmentor.io website, so a betteralt
attribute would beQR code to frontendmentor.io
If you want to learn more about the
alt
attribute, you can read this article. 📘.
I hope you find it useful! 😄
Happy coding!

Hello there 👋. Congratulations on successfully completing the challenge! 🎉
- I have other recommendations regarding your code that I believe will be of great interest to you.
CSS 🎨:
- Looks like the component has not been centered properly. So let me explain, How you can easily center the component without using
margin
orpadding
.
- We don't need to use
margin
andpadding
to center the component both horizontally & vertically. Because usingmargin
orpadding
will not dynamical centers our component at all states
- To properly center the component in the page, you should use
Flexbox
orGrid
layout. You can read more about centering in CSS here 📚.
- For this demonstration we use css
Grid
to center the component.
body { min-height: 100vh; display: grid; place-items: center; }
- Now remove these styles, after removing you can able to see the changes
.container { margin: 70px auto; }
- Now your component has been properly centered
.
I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !
Happy coding!
