    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.

    QR iMAGE ALT TEXT 📸:

    • The QR Code Component involves scanning the QR code, the image is not a decoration, so it must have an alt attribute which should explain the purpose of the image.

    • The alt with qrcode is not even explaining for what the QR image need to be used.

    • So update the alt with meaningful text which explains like QR code to frontendmentor.io

    • Example: <img src="/images/image-qr-code.png" alt="QR code to frontendmentor.io">

    .

    I hope you find this helpful 😄 Above all, the solution you submitted is great !

    Happy coding!

    Congratulations on completing the challenge! 🎉

    Welcome to the platform! 🎉 We're thrilled to have you here and excited to see your progress 💪as you continue your front-end development journey.

    Your solution looks nice to me :)

    In my projects:

    • I always start with mobile-first workflow.
    • I use at least one main element for a page (entire content goes into the main, if I'm not using header & footer), and avoid divs as much as possible and use section and article element wherever I can.
    <body>
    <main>
    All content 
    </main>
    </body>
    
    • I Use relative units as much as possible and avoid absolute units whenever possible.

    • If you are someone who is just starting out with front-end development, I strongly suggest starting with the QR code component project(which you did). Also in the challenges page you may filter by (Newbie, HTML&CSS) sort by (easier first) to select projects that will help you solidify your foundation. To avoid any potential knowledge gap⚠️ please first solidify HTML, CSS, JS fundamentals and then move on to any framework or library.

    • I remember when I started out, I made countless mistakes and spent long hours searching for solutions. But hey, you don't need to go through the same struggles! 🙌 To help you shorten the learning curve, I recommend going through the following articles. They contain valuable insights that can make your journey smoother:

    📚🔍 12 important CSS topics where I discuss about css position, z-index, box-model, flexbox, grid, media queries, mobile-first workflow, best practices etc. in a simple way.

    📚🔍 11 important HTML topics where I discuss about my thought process and approach to convert a design/mock-up to HTML along with important topics like block and inline elements, HTML Semantic Elements.

    I hope you find these resources helpful in your coding adventures! 🤞

    I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing the amazing projects you'll create in the future! 🚀💻

    Keep up the fantastic work and happy hacking! 💪✨

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.
