Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Did you have to resolve any issues when running the HTML Validator? If so, what were they?	Yes, the HTML validator did not like the final / at the end of my <img> tags, so I removed them. It also took issue with my <section> tags not having corresponding headers and recommended I used <div> instead. I did not make this change because it was my understanding that using <div> is not semantic HTML.
Why is it important to consider and use semantic HTML?	to give meaning to the sometimes difficult to decipher and continuous flow of text that is HTML
How did you decide to structure your CSS?	I created a general style sheet for elements that carried across documents, and then I created a specific stylesheet for each page that I linked afterwards so that any style decisions made in these sheets would override the general ones
What was the most challenging piece of this assignment?	Firstly, trying to understand what visual elements make a website look put together instead of DIY. But mostly, I am still struggling with getting things where I want them to be on the page. Do not even get me started on responsive web design.
Describe one area that you gained more clarity on when completing this assignment	I have a better understanding of the challenges of manipulating different elements in space and the ways that Flexbox and CSS Grids can help make things easier.
Did you deploy to GitHub Pages? If so, what is the URL to your website?	It's not ready yet. Trust me.

It looks like you have two copies of every CSS file. It would be good to keep the repo clean by removing unused files.

Image URLs should not have a space in them, it causes errors. Make sure when you add assets and name them to remove spaces!

Since this property here is the same as the one for a:link, you can do:

a:link, a:active {
    text-decoration: none;
}
