Solution retrospective


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

I was able to style the custom markers for the two unordered lists for and the counters for the ordered list.

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

For the ordered list, I styled the counters using the ::marker pseudo-element.

Styling the list markers for the unordered lists was a bit more challenging. In the JPEG design file for the mobile layout, the markers do not sit next to the first line of text but are centered vertically if the text content of the list item wraps over two lines. I used custom markers with the ::before pseudo-element to position the markers with flexbox.

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

I'm looking simpler CSS selectors to add the horizontal lines to the nutrition table. This is what I have now:

tr:not(:first-child) td,
tr:not(:first-child) th {
  border-top: 1px solid var(--stone-100);
}
Code

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.
