Is there a best practice to center the whole content container on the center of the page (horizontal and vertical) without using "margin"? I tried with flexboox but ended up using margin also.

    Hi! 👋 Congratulations on completing the challenge!

    I have some suggestions to improve the solution:

    • Add the following CSS properties to the body to properly center the content on the middle of screen:
    height:100vh;
    display: grid;
    place-items:center:
    
    • Add the following CSS Properties to .attribution:
    position:absolute;
    bottom:0;
    

    This will place the attribution in bottom.

    Happy coding!

    When you use flexbox, you have to set the body's height to 100% of the viewport height Then the align items and justify content will work Just like this

    body { height: 100vh; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; }

    And justify content is to center it horizontally whilst align items is to center it vertical. I wish you all the best Happy coding

    instead of height : 100vh use min-height:100vh

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 all CSS, SCSS and Less files in your repository.

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.

How does the JavaScript validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use eslint to run an automated check on the JavaScript code.

The report picks out common JavaScript issues such as not using semicolons and using var instead of let or const, among others.

The report will audit all JS and JSX files in your repository. We currently do not support Typescript or other frontend frameworks.
