Hey, everybody! 👋

This was an awesome challenge that was a little trickier than I initially thought! 😅

This was my first time creating a site with light/dark themes but I'm pretty happy with the result. I added this cool transition that ripples over the cards when the theme is changed! 😆

As usual, feedback is welcome and appreciated! 😊

And as always, happy coding! 😁

    That's really cool.. A question how to make the icons fixed to the cards.. in my solution when I try to change the resolution, it changes positions.

    Can't believe I missed this! I haven't done this challenge yet, but had to drop in to let you know that theme switch transition is fantastic! 🙌 Definitely bookmarked for when I get around to this one.

    This is so good!

    P.S. Your profile says you're a newbie, but I don't believe it. :)

    Very cool. Nice touch on the ripple animation for the items.

    Keep it up, waiting for your next solution 👍

    Hello, ApplePieGiraffe!

    Great job as always! I came to see your solution to learn something new. The only thing that caught my eye in this great project was the lack of toggle button animation. What I could suggest is:

    • Maybe instead of adding .toggle-switch__btn--inactive class to your #toggle-switch button and change justify-content to flex-end you should add this inactive class to your .toggle-switch__circle and set transform: translate() on it. Combining this with transition on your circle element you'll get nice and smooth animation. I hope that what I wrote makes sense.

    Good luck, have fun coding :)!

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.
