"Smart Home" markup training 💪

Example of markup training
The THIRD markup of mine, a little better than the previous ones

---

Mistakes of my very first try ㊙️

• a lot of repetitions of CSS code
• not using BEM methodology of CSS
• not using any of CSS preprocessors
• was not using semantic tags of HTML at all
• it wasn't checked in every browser it should've been checked in
• didn't set copyrights, author or description meta
• was not using power of inheritance

---

In the previous (second) attempt there were such mistakes as 🉐

• still a lot of repetitions of CSS code
• not using any of CSS preprocessors
• not cross-browser support

---

Things I've achieved in markup by this moment:

• I've added semantic tags of HTML, such as <header>, <nav>, <section>, <article>, <aside>, <footer> and <address>
• using only one of each <h1> - <h6> headers (with one exception)
• add <meta name="author"> and <meta name="description">, as well as commented copyrights into html file
• using oblique isntead of italic
• using webp image format instead of png in the previous examples (wanted to use svg as well)
• set font-size relatively, based on the :root { font-size: 10px; } (math with 10px is much easier than with 14px or 16px)
• started using SCSS preprocessor of CSS, including $preprocessor-directive and @import './relative/path/scss-module-name'
• organize modules and project structure according to the BEM methodology (+-)
• started using <a> tag insted of <button> one for elements such as "See more", "Read More" etc
• partly using BEM (not perfectly)
• partly achieved full cross-browser support
  • Google Chrome ✔️
  • Mozilla Firefox ✔️
  • Microsoft Edge ✔️
  • Internet Explorer ❌
  • Safari ❔

  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  -ms-box-sizing: border-box;
  -o-box-sizing: border-box;
  box-sizing: border-box;

New things to improve: ❗

• don't forget about <main> semantic tag
• use svg format for icons
• add .gitignore and ignore .css.map building files
• check mixins and predicate operators of SCSS
• use <noscript> html tag
• keep honing BEM methodology
