I just have to questions :

  • I struggled to make the top border with the gradient for Instagram. Is there an easy way to do it?
  • Could you give me some basic feedbacks on ways I could improve my code (cleaner, more readable, etc)?

    Hey, Mathieu Céraline! 👋

    Great job on this challenge! Your solution looks good, responds well, and the light/dark themes work great! 👍

    I only suggest,

    • Switching to a one-column layout for the statistics cards just a wee bit sooner than 395px so that the content inside the boxes doesn't look too squeezed and none of the text overflows its container.

    Keep coding (and happy coding, too)! 😁

    .instagram {
      border-top: 4px solid;
      border-image-source: linear-gradient(
        to right,
        hsl(37, 97%, 70%),
        hsl(329, 70%, 58%)
      );
      border-image-slice: 1;
    }
    

    This is what I did for the top border for the Instagram box.

    Hi Mathieu. I think your solution for the top borders is solid, so don't worry about that. If you had issues with making it like this, try practicing with pseudo-elements more in your future solutions! 😁

    I think you CSS is also looking good! The way you put every bit in their own section makes it very readable and easy to navigate. Keep it up! 🙌🏻

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.
