  Lovely job here! The page looks good and responds well....

  You might want to think about stopping the page from spreading too wide a very large screens. There are many ways to do this but I set a grid on the body element, with three columns, as using a class selector as follows:

  .center-content {
  	display: grid;
  	grid-template-columns: minmax(1rem, 1fr) minmax(375px, 1440px)minmax(1rem, 1fr);
  }
  
  .center-content > *  {
  	grid-column: 2;
  }
  

  The 1440px is the max-width you want the main content to be, and the 1rem values is the smallest spacing you want either side of the main content on small screens (I sometimes put this to 0 and use a container to add padding to each section).

  The second part positions all direct children of the body in this nicely sized middle column. In my case, mostly, my header, main, and footer the middle column, and stops them going wider than 1440px. It’s also pretty easy to ‘break’ elements out of this constraint if you need to.

  Other people use container classes to do the same thing. This article has a good run down of alternative approaches https://css-tricks.com/the-inside-problem/ You will note I am actually using the approach the author doesn't like!

  Either way it's a good idea to find an approach that works for you as you'll need this for a lot of FEM challenges.

  Otherwise, I can see the challenge you are facing with the alignment of the error message on the CTA. One solution could be to wrap the input and the error message in a parent and use this as the basis for positioning them relative to each other?

  Again, this is a common pattern in many FEM challenges so it's worth spending a bit of time working out a way that works for you and you can apply in the future.

  Hope all that makes sense, but let me know if anything isn't clear!

  Cheers

  Dave
