What is CSS?


Cascading Style Sheets, fondly referred to as CSS, is a simple design language intended to simplify the process of making web pages presentable.
CSS handles the look and feel part of a web page. Using CSS, you can control the color of the text, the style of fonts, the spacing between paragraphs, how columns are sized and laid out, what background images or colors are used, as well as a variety of other effects.
SYNTAX

A CSS comprises of style rules that are interpreted by the browser and then applied to the corresponding elements in your document. A style rule is made of three parts:
Selector: A selector is an HTML tag at which a style will be applied. This could be any tag like <h1> or <table> etc.
Property: A property is a type of attribute of HTML tag. Put simply, all the HTML attributes are converted into CSS properties. They could be color, border, etc.
Value: Values are assigned to properties. For example, color property can have the value either red or #F1F1F1 etc.

You can put CSS Style Rule Syntax as follows:
selector { property: value }

Embedded CSS -The <style> Element

You can put your CSS rules into an HTML document using the <style> element. This tag is placed inside the <head>...</head> tags. Rules defined using this syntax will be applied to all the elements available in the document.
