Frontend Mentor - QR code component

Welcome! 👋

Thanks for checking out this front-end coding challenge.

Frontend Mentor challenges help you improve your coding skills by building realistic projects.

To do this challenge, you need a basic understanding of HTML and CSS.

The challenge

Your challenge is to build out this QR code component and get it looking as close to the design as possible.

You can use any tools you like to help you complete the challenge. So if you've got something you'd like to practice, feel free to give it a go.

Where to find everything

Your task is to build out the project to the designs inside the /design folder. You will find both a mobile and a desktop version of the design.

The designs are in JPG static format. Using JPGs will mean that you'll need to use your best judgment for styles such as font-size, padding and margin.

If you would like the design files (we provide Sketch & Figma versions) to inspect the design in more detail, you can subscribe as a PRO member.

You will find all the required assets in the /images folder. The assets are already optimized.

There is also a style-guide.md file containing the information you'll need, such as color palette and fonts.

Building your project

Feel free to use any workflow that you feel comfortable with. Below is a suggested process, but do not feel like you need to follow these steps:

1. Initialize your project as a public repository on GitHub. Creating a repo will make it easier to share your code with the community if you need help. If you're not sure how to do this, have a read-through of this Try Git resource.
2. Configure your repository to publish your code to a web address. This will also be useful if you need some help during a challenge as you can share the URL for your project with your repo URL. There are a number of ways to do this, and we provide some recommendations below.
3. Look through the designs to start planning out how you'll tackle the project. This step is crucial to help you think ahead for CSS classes to create reusable styles.
4. Before adding any styles, structure your content with HTML. Writing your HTML first can help focus your attention on creating well-structured content.
5. Write out the base styles for your project, including general content styles, such as font-family and font-size.
6. Start adding styles to the top of the page and work down. Only move on to the next section once you're happy you've completed the area you're working on.

Deploying your project

As mentioned above, there are many ways to host your project for free. Our recommended hosts are:

• GitHub Pages
• Vercel
• Netlify

You can host your site using one of these solutions or any of our other trusted providers. Read more about our recommended and trusted hosts.

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

I could recreate the design, without much googling or AI help. I took some liberties with the design, to make the text a bit bigger and fluid (mainly to practice/test clamp) and to make the QR bigger in mobile (to practice media queries)

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I saw recently that align-content: center worked in block elements, but in some browsers it didn't work so I end up changing to display grid.

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

None at the moment.**
