CSS Introduction

What is CSS?

• CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
• CSS describes how HTML elements are to be displayed on screen, paper, or in other media
• CSS saves a lot of work. It can control the layout of multiple web pages all at once
• External stylesheets are stored in CSS files

CSS Variables

• The var() function is used to insert the value of a CSS variable.
• A good way to use CSS variables is when it comes to the colors of your design. Instead of copy and paste the same colors over and over again, you can place them in variables.

Example

        
        body{  background-color: #1e90ff;}

         h2 { border-bottom: 2px solid #1e90ff; }

         .container {
          color: #1e90ff;
          background-color: #ffffff;
          padding: 15px;
          }

          button {
          background-color: #ffffff;
          color: #1e90ff;
          border: 1px solid #1e90ff;
          padding: 5px;
         }
