CSS: A Comprehensive Guide

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a stylesheet language used to control the presentation of web

pages. It allows developers to

apply styles like colors, fonts, layouts, and spacing to HTML elements. This guide covers key

concepts and properties in CSS.

1. CSS Syntax:

- Selector: The HTML element you want to style.

- Declaration: Contains property and value pairs.

Example: h1 { color: blue; font-size: 20px; }

2. CSS Selectors:

- Universal Selector (*)

- Class Selector (.className)

- ID Selector (#idName)

- Descendant Selector (element1 element2)

- Pseudo-classes (:hover, :nth-child)

3. CSS Properties:

- Color: `color`, `background-color`

- Text: `font-size`, `font-family`, `text-align`

- Box Model: `margin`, `padding`, `border`

- Positioning: `position`, `top`, `left`, `z-index`

- Flexbox and Grid: Modern layout techniques.


4. Responsive Design:

- Media Queries: `@media (max-width: 600px) { ... }`

- Units: Use relative units like %, em, rem, and vw/vh.

5. Advanced Features:

- CSS Variables: `--main-color: #333;`

- Animations: `@keyframes`, `animation`

- Transitions: `transition: all 0.3s ease;`

6. Best Practices:

- Keep styles modular and reusable.

- Use external stylesheets for maintainability.

- Minimize inline styles.
