Solution retrospective


I just wrapped up the space tourism website challenge and am over the moon with how it turned out! ๐Ÿš€๐ŸŒ™ It was a total blast getting to build a responsive site that allowed users to explore some out of this world destinations, crew members, and technology!

I focused on using plain ol' HTML, CSS and vanilla JS to bring it to life. Some of the fun interactions I built include:

Tabbed navigation to toggle between different options ๐Ÿ‘ฝ Smooth scrolling between page sections ๐Ÿš€ Groovy page load animations with animxyz ๐ŸŒ€ In terms of accessibility though, I know there's room for improvement:

Add more descriptive alt text for images ๐Ÿ“ท Structure markup more semantically with tags like <header> ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Improve color contrast in places โ˜‘๏ธ Do more testing with assistive tech like screen readers ๐ŸŽง Overall, I'm super proud of what I built! ๐Ÿ’ช But I'm also excited to keep improving, especially on web accessibility best practices. Let me know if you have any other specific feedback based on the code provided!

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 โ€œinvalidโ€ attributes, which some frameworks automatically add to the HTML. These attributes are crucial for how the frameworks function, although theyโ€™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.
