- Declarations end with a semicolon, blocks surrounded by curly braces

- Multiple properties can be set for multiple selectors within a single statement
Styling HTML with CSS
- CSS added to HTML in three ways: inline, internal, and external
- Inline styles are applied directly within the HTML element
- Internal stylesheets are defined within the HTML document using the style element
- External stylesheets are separate files containing style rules linked to the HTML document
1-Inline Styles
- Inline styles are placed directly within the HTML element
- They're not reusable and can't be reused across multiple web pages
- Web designers can't use style builders to create inline styles
2-Internal Styles
- Internal stylesheets are placed within the section of an HTML document
- They are reusable within that specific webpage
- The type attribute of the style element specifies the content type, usually "text/css"
3-External Style Sheet
- External styles are saved as separate .css files
- These files contain style rules that are linked to multiple HTML pages
- External styles offer reusability, enabling consistent styling across multiple web pages
Types of Selectors

- Types include: group, universal, type, ID, and class selectors

- Classes are assigned using a dot (.) before the class name
- Multiple classes can be applied to a single element
- IDs are unique to each element on a page
- IDs are assigned using a hash (#) symbol before the ID name
