What I learned

• HTML Accessibility with Semantic Tags: When developing your HTML, prioritize accessibility by incorporating semantic tags. These tags, explained here, not only enhance search engine discoverability but also ensure that individuals with disabilities can navigate and utilize your site. In some jurisdictions, the accessibility of websites carries legal implications. It's crucial to avoid overusing generic divs, as they lack semantic value.

• Logical Control with box-sizing: border-box;: To maintain logical control over elements in your project, consider adding the CSS property box-sizing: border-box;. This recommendation ensures that the specified width/height corresponds to the actual dimensions rendered on the screen. Embracing this approach contributes to a more predictable layout.

• Optimal Font Loading in HTML: For consistent font rendering, it's advisable to include font links directly within your HTML. By doing so, your site maintains its original fonts even if the CSS hasn't fully loaded. This practice prevents the reliance on browser defaults, resulting in a more cohesive and user-friendly experience.

Code Highlights

• using css reset correctly

  * {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    }
