Takeaways
- 😀 CSS is a stylesheet language that enhances the visual presentation of HTML, moving it from a basic black-and-white layout to a styled design.

- 😀 A typical CSS rule starts with a selector, followed by a declaration block enclosed in braces, containing properties to style HTML elements.
- 😀 Stylesheets can contain multiple rules for the same element, and the specificity of these rules determines which styles are applied.
- 😀 CSS rules can inherit styles from parent elements, but this behavior varies depending on the element.
- 😀 To start using CSS, one can open a style tag in an HTML document and target elements using selectors such as type, class, or ID.
- 😀 HTML elements can be visualized as boxes that can be styled with properties like padding, margin, and border to control their layout.
- 😀 CSS tools like Flexbox and Grid allow for sophisticated control over how these boxes float and align within a web page.
- 😀 Pseudo-selectors like :hover enable detection of user interactions, enhancing interactivity on websites.
- 😀 CSS supports the use of variables and media queries to apply styles conditionally based on device characteristics and viewport size.
