Here are some basic text notes for CSS (Cascading Style Sheets):

**Class Title: Introduction to CSS**

**Session 1: What is CSS?**


- CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets.
- It is a stylesheet language used for describing the presentation and layout of
web pages.
- CSS is used to control the design, appearance, and formatting of HTML elements.

**Session 2: CSS Syntax**


- CSS consists of rules that define how HTML elements should be displayed.
- CSS rules are composed of a selector and a declaration block.
- Example CSS rule:
```css
selector {
property: value;
}
```

**Session 3: CSS Selectors**


- CSS selectors are used to target specific HTML elements for styling.
- Common selectors include:
- Element selector: `p { }`
- Class selector: `.classname { }`
- ID selector: `#idname { }`
- Descendant selector: `div p { }`
- Attribute selector: `input[type="text"] { }`

**Session 4: CSS Properties and Values**


- CSS properties define the aspect of an element to be styled.
- Example properties:
- `color`: Text color.
- `font-size`: Font size.
- `margin`: Outer spacing.
- `padding`: Inner spacing.
- `background-color`: Background color.

**Session 5: CSS Box Model**


- The CSS box model defines how elements are rendered as boxes.
- Components of the box model include content, padding, border, and margin.

**Session 6: CSS Layout**


- CSS can be used to control the layout of web pages.
- Techniques for creating layout include using properties like `display`,
`position`, and `float`.
- CSS Grid and Flexbox are popular layout methods.

**Session 7: CSS Pseudo-classes and Pseudo-elements**


- Pseudo-classes are used to define special states of elements, such as `:hover`
and `:active`.
- Pseudo-elements are used to style specific parts of elements, like `::before` and
`::after`.

**Session 8: CSS Transitions and Animations**


- CSS can be used to create smooth transitions and animations.
- `transition` and `animation` properties are used for animation effects.

**Session 9: CSS Media Queries**


- Media queries allow for responsive web design by applying different styles based
on screen size.
- Example media query:
```css
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
/* Styles for small screens */
}
```

**Session 10: CSS Best Practices**


- Use external CSS files for maintainability.
- Keep CSS code organized and use comments.
- Use meaningful class and ID names.
- Test your styles across different browsers.

These are some fundamental topics covered in an introductory CSS class. CSS is a
powerful tool for web design and plays a critical role in creating visually
appealing and responsive web pages. Students often continue to explore more
advanced CSS topics and frameworks as they advance in their web development
studies.
