What I learned

I learned css object-fit:cover; stretches the image too much and decided use css object-fit: fill instead. I created HTML input placeholder attribute with JavaScript.

.showcase img {
  width: 100%;
  max-height: 30rem;
  object-fit: fill;
  height: auto;
}

document.getElementById("email__input").placeholder = "Email Address";
