Thing is a "REPLICA" and "the best code" are IMHO incompatible concepts. BECAUSE it's so flawed in terms of accessibility, usability, and a host of other issues.
And you're saying numbers that don't exist, making me think your browser or something else is interfering on your end... because where you're getting an extra 10k of markup and some "endscreen.js" bull is beyond me as that's NOT in my code.
This is ALL you should be getting for HTML, CSS, and JS
36k total. If you're getting more than that either a browser plugin, of outright malware/virus is screwing with your browser! How you’re magically getting some extra 10k of HTML and that extra script? That’s NOT in the page in question.
As opposed to YOUR 77.85k rewrite without the videos and fonts.
Something is WRONG on your end!
Kind of wish you had an archive file of yours or the directory was open to make grabbing a full copy eaiser. Oops, forgot to add the .rar to my directory. I’ll get on that today.
On the use of style="", pay more attention to what I've said in the past and what I said in this very article. 100% of the time you see <style> and 90% of the time you see style="" you're seeing 3i. SAY HELLO TO THE 10%!
When it comes to making the icons smaller on large screen, why would you want that in the first place. You have MORE room, leave it be so you can see what they are and interact with them better. On small screens you need them to be touch sized targets which yours didn’t do in testing.
And as to being a replica, yours isn’t either. You’ve got paragraphs in the summaries that don’t exist, image previews for said summaries that are too large to even be in the summary areas, inconsistent use of margin… So it’s not like you left well enough alone either.
From left to right: Original, Yours, Mine. I’m just a hair closer, “big difference” being mine upscales the fonts for EM/REM and puts the image after the informative, since when the date wrapped it looked like crap. Hell their original doesn’t even have the date. Also no clue why you added the tags, bookmarks, and controls that they don’t have. Date wasn’t a bad idea, but the rest?
