Line 22 can be better formatted as:

    <p>
      A README file introduces and explains a project. It usually contains 
      instructions on how to install, use, and contribute to the project. It 
      helps others quickly understand the purpose and usage of your code.
    </p>

To understand why, you can ask AI these questions:

  • How HTML treats multiple whitespace characters in text?
  • What's the advantage of not writing a long paragraph of text in a single line in HTML?

VSCode's "Format Document" feature can help us format our code for better readability and consistency, including breaking a long line of text into shorter lines of text.
To use the feature, right-click inside the code editor and select the option.
Please note that if there are syntax errors in the code, the "Prettier" extension may not format HTML code properly.

<h2>What is the purpose of a wireframe?</h2>
<p>A wireframe is a visual guide that represents the skeletal framework of a webpage. It helps designers and developers plan the structure and layout before adding colors, images, and content.</p>

<h2>What is a branch in Git?</h2>
<p>A branch in Git is a separate line of development that allows you
to work on new features or bug fixes without affecting the main
codebase. Once changes are ready, branches can be merged back into
the main branch.</p>

Why is there a form element in the wireframe implementation?

The

element is included because it provides the functional logic for the interaction. Even in a wireframe, it serves three main purposes:

Native Validation: It enables the browser to enforce the required, minlength, and pattern rules automatically.

Accessibility: It tells screen readers that these elements are related, and it allows users to submit by pressing the "Enter" key.

Data Handling: It acts as a container that captures the input data to be sent to a server or processed by a script.

Regardless of the relevancy, it is dangerous to introduce feature not described in the spec. It is better to remove it from the wireframe implementation.

Note: CYF keeps all exercises belonging to the same module in the same repository, but the the Form-controls and the Wireframe are two independent exercises.
