HTML & CSS Quality












0












$begingroup$


I'm a software developer trying to level up my front end skills. I used to be quite decent at it but haven't worked with front end for a long time so my skills are a bit rusty. As an exercise I'm building out these W3 templates using vanilla HTML & CSS. Please provide feedback based on these questions:



-How would you rate this code in terms of cleanliness and maintainability.



-How efficient is the structuring of the code? How to make it more efficient?



-Any other suggestions?



Thank you in advance!

      I'm a software developer trying to level up my front end skills. I used to be quite decent at it but haven't worked with front end for a long time so my skills are a bit rusty. As an exercise I'm building out these W3 templates using vanilla HTML & CSS. Please provide feedback based on these questions:



      -How would you rate this code in terms of cleanliness and maintainability.



      -How efficient is the structuring of the code? How to make it more efficient?



      -Any other suggestions?



      Thank you in advance!
