Welcome to "CSS Basics for Beginners." This book will help you understand the fundamental
concepts of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets),

the language used to style web pages. Whether you're a beginner or looking for a refresher, this
guide will provide a solid foundation in CSS.

## Chapter 1: What is CSS?

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to style HTML elements and control the layout of web pages.

### Key Features of CSS:

- Controls colors, fonts, spacing, and layout.

- Works with HTML to design visually appealing websites.

- Allows responsive design for different screen sizes.

Example of a simple CSS rule:

}
## Chapter 2: CSS Selectors and Properties

CSS uses selectors to target HTML elements and apply styles.

### Common CSS Selectors:

- p - Targets all <p> elements.

- #id - Targets an element with a specific ID.

- .class - Targets elements with a specific class.

Example:

h1 {

color: blue;

#unique {

font-size: 20px;

.highlight {

background-color: yellow;

## Chapter 3: CSS Box Model

The CSS Box Model is essential for layout design.


### Box Model Components:

- **Margin** - Space outside the element.

- **Border** - The element's boundary.

- **Padding** - Space between content and border.

- **Content** - The actual content of the element.

Example:

div {

margin: 10px;

padding: 20px;

border: 2px solid black;

## Chapter 4: CSS Flexbox and Grid

CSS provides modern layout techniques like Flexbox and Grid.

### Flexbox Example:

.container {

display: flex;

justify-content: center;

align-items: center;

### Grid Example:


.grid-container {

display: grid;

grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;

gap: 10px;
