Solution retrospective


Hi! This is my first challenge. I find this website useful to refresh and improve my knowledge and skills. Also I'm curious about few things:

  • Is <br> tag is a good way to break line in headers and paragraphs in this particular case and at all or I should achieve this by using margins, widths, font-sizing etc.?

  • In order to get identical result, I used transform: scale() on text. Is it a good practice?

  • Which relative unit should I use for margins and paddings?

Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi Michael, welldone on completing the challenge.

    1. For this particular challenge, you don't need the <br> tag, you can achieve the text effect with margins, widths, font-sizing, etc.
    2. For margins, padding and width, the em or rem is preferred when you need the size to be relative to the parent element's font size. the px is used when you are aiming at a fixed size.

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.
