Profile Card

Part of the Practical Frontend section of Coddy's HTML journey — lesson 32 of 35.

Challenge

Easy

You are given a complete HTML page about Amelia Earhart, a famous aviator. The page already has the structure and content, but it needs CSS styling to make it look good on both mobile and larger screens.

Your task is to add the missing CSS styles to complete the design.

Define CSS variables for primary color, text color, and background. Apply them to the card’s background, text, heading, and button.
Style the larger screen layout (min-width: 768px):
- Show the image on the left and the text on the right (use flex-direction: row).
- Set proper widths for the image and the content.
On larger screens, apply object-fit: cover; to the image so it scales nicely.
