I noticed a value that has not gotten an explanation yet, when I set the width and height of the body element. The instructions say “set the height to 100vh”. Should there be an explanation for what it means?
I don’t know, maybe. If every step will have explanation about everything it will become overwhelming. To my opinion, curriculum is about practice, if you feel like you need more theory: do research, ask questions.
And it’s definitely not a bug.

we have an issue open for it
opened 06:42AM - 15 Jun 22 UTC
type: bug
help wanted
status: discussing
scope: curriculum
### Describe the Issue
In [step 7](https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/2022/re… sponsive-web-design/learn-html-forms-by-building-a-registration-form/step-7) of `Learn HTML Forms by Building a Registration Form` , we are asked to set the height of the body element to 100vh. However, the unit vh was never introduced in earlier lessons and there is no explanation given at this step too as to what it is.
As I continued through the course, I stumbled upon another unexplained unit `rem` in [step 14](https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/2022/responsive-web-design/learn-html-forms-by-building-a-registration-form/step-14)
`em` isn't explained either in [step 38](https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/2022/responsive-web-design/learn-html-forms-by-building-a-registration-form/step-38)
Relative units were never explained in the course. The problem seems to be that this practice projects assumes familiarity with these concepts.

### Your code

### Expected behavior
A brief explanation on relative units in CSS would help new learners.
it seems it was missed while planning the new curriculum
