Solution retrospective


I started out using css grid for the middle section, but I couldn't quite get it to work. I finally used relative and absolute positioning with percentage values for the widths and the responsiveness was much easier . I am sure grid probably can do this easier, but I am not experienced enough yet to understand it. I used background position for the color dots backgrounds, but couldn't get it quite in the correct spot. not sure what the trick is there. I loved this exercise though. It was so much fun.

    Hi

    Here's a few improvement suggestions

    • the logo is the most important content on the whole page and youve currently hidden it from search engines and screenreaders. That alt cannot be left empty
    • the app image is arguably really important content too, but the image description is empty
    • could some other images in this be background images perhaps? Just an idea
    • the email address in the footer needs to be a mail to link
    • the social media icons are never just icons, you'd expect to click them, right? So they need to be interactive elements (anchor tags) that also have a label available to the accessibility api (eg. Sr only text)

    Good luck with it

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.
