Intro to CSS¶

documentation can be found here!

Cascading Style Sheets, or CSS is a styling language used to describe the presentation of HTML/XML documents.

It describes how elements should be rendered in webpages, on paper or other media.

Adding CSS to an HTML document¶

• You can add the code in another file named styles.css, and link it by adding the following line to the document:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/styles.css" />

OR we can have it inline (a bad practice, usually) as well, or even in the document itself as follows:

<style>
  p {
    color: purple;
  }
</style>

h1 {
  color: red;
}

This line of code changes the headings created by h1 tags to red color.
