CSS basics

reflection

this week we looked into the use of CSS and how this will be used for our project 2. CSS is extremely important due to the amount of uses this can have from the use of colour and typefaces CSS and HTML are hand in hand with one another.

what is CSS

CSS is cascading style sheet which are used for designers to generate images to high level this also go hand in and with HTML. this also defines HTML with the use of colour, fonts and layout with this there is many more add ones that can be used for CSS.

the structure for CSS

this is similar to HTML structure but with this selector, value and rule are all with the CSS family and have to be understood through this. also the advantages of using the structure of CSS concludes with the process of CSS isn't too complicated and the use of lean web pages can eb created. the use of a prototype and mock-up can be used in CSS.

a CSS reset is to send HTML into a consistent baseline using the elements of HTML. the use of colour in CSS conclude with the American spelling of ‘Color’ as this is the correct spelling and command for the correct code to work rather than the spelling of colour.
