Solution retrospective


What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I was able to learn box-model, a bit of css flexbox and how to do stuff.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I was overwhelmed at first, and I didn't know what to do. So I explored and started working and it turns out that was the only way that helped me overcome my challenge!

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

    Hey there!

    Here's a simple suggestion:

    • set the code below in the body selector to center the card:
    body {
      display: grid;
      place-items: center;
      min-height: 100vh;
    }
    
    • Make sure that the card is the only child element of the <body>.

    If not wrapp everything nested inside <body> with the <main> element. It will look something like this:

    <body>
      <main>
        <!-- every element nested inside -->
      </main>
    </body>
    

    Keep up the grind🫡

    Great job completing your first challenge, here are some suggestions

    • Avoid setting fixed heights and widths on elements, as this can create problems with responsiveness and content fit. Instead, let the content and padding determine the element’s size. If necessary, use max-width or min-height, and prefer relative units like rem for better adaptability. Remove the width from the body, change the height to min-height: 100dvh;
    • To properly center the card, using flexbox on the body is better suited add this on your body and remove the all the margin properties from the .container-white
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
    flex-direction: column;
    min-height: 100dvh;
    background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 8%);
    padding: 1.5rem;
    
    • Change the width of the .container to max-width and it should be defined in rem. Also, remove the height property completely.
    • Your image isn't showing because it has a wrong path change it to src="images/image-qr-code.png"
    • Use a modern CSS reset at the start of the styles in every project. Like this one Modern CSS Reset. This will help reset a list of default browser styles.

    Hope this helps, Good luck!

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.
