nailed it

"Nailed it" is an informal idiom used to express that a task was executed perfectly or exceptionally well, similar to saying "You did a great job" or "Perfect!". The phrase comes from the idea of hitting a nail perfectly on the head to drive it straight into a surface without bending it, symbolizing precise and successful completion.
