Css

CSS, short for Cascading Style Sheets is a style sheet language used for controlling how html is displayed on websites. Css document consist of set of rules where each rule represent a selector that matches elements inside a HTML document.

Example

Take the following element inside a HTML document :

<a class="foo" href="/" rel="nofollow">Code Beautify</a>

If we want to style the link e.g use red color and bigger font, we can map it thru the following css selector:

a {
  color: red;
  font-size: 20px;
}

As you can see, we used the `a` tag as a selector element. This will cause also all links inside a document to have the same visual representation. Another way to map an HTML element inside a CSS document is by using the class name of the element as a CSS selector:

.foo {
  color: green;
  font-size: 16px;
}
