Solution retrospective


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

I’m most proud of successfully implementing the black transparent overlay using the ::before pseudo-element instead of an absolute positionised div. I'm proud of utilizing SCSS variables to streamline my styling process and using nested styles. I used flex box but Next time, I would explore advanced layout techniques like CSS Grid to handle complex designs more efficiently.

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

One of the main challenges I faced was getting the black transparent overlay to appear correctly over the image. I was accustomed to using an absolutely positioned div, which required matching the height and width with the image dimensions each time it changes. I overcame this by using the ::before pseudo-element on the figure with top: 0, bottom: 0, left: 0, and right: 0, ensuring the overlay was positioned correctly over the image.

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

I would appreciate feedback on how to further optimize my SCSS, especially regarding best practices and responsive design. Additionally, any tips on improving accessibility throughout the project would be valuable.

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.
