Edited: I got rid of absolute positioning and switched it out for flexbox and also fixed the issue I had with the attribution. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!

I used Flexbox for the main QR Code card and absolute positioning to center it vertically and horizontally. I was a bit confused at first because the top percentage from the absolute positioning wasn't working. After Googling a bit, I found out that it could've been because I didn't initially specify the height of the parent container. So I just gave the height of 100vh to the body. I'm wondering if this is the right way to center an element horizontally and vertically. Please let me know if I did anything wrong or if there is a better way to do this.

Additionally, I couldn't figure out what to do with the attribution class and its content. Since I use absolute positioning for the main QR code part, the attribution part was automatically stuck to the top of the page. I was wondering if there is a way to position this somewhere else like right underneath the QR code card.

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.
