Solution retrospective


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

Thanks to the comments and looking at some other solutions, I was happy with my revised grid solution that takes advantage of the grid-auto-flow and the grid shorthand to position the cards correctly.

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

If anyone knows how to get the top borders of each of the cards to have a straight edge rather than curved that would be helpful.

    Nice work! Great effort overall!

    I just want to clarify that there's no "wrong" way to approach things, especially when it comes to CSS. It's rare for a CSS solution that visually matches the design to be considered incorrect.

    That said, one thing you might want to consider is using grid in your .layout-grid element.

    Here's a tip: You can create a 3x2 grid where the first and last cards span across 2 rows on desktop. This way, you won't need the 3 .col elements.

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.
