Introduction to CSS


After covering an adequate amount of HTML, Codecademy introduces CSS, or Cascading Style Sheets. CSS is immensely useful in styling a webpage in such a way that tags do not have to be repeated constantly throughout the HTML code. This introductory lesson focuses on learning correct syntax, introduces selectors, and demonstrates selecting HTML elements such as background color, size, and borders.

The final project for this lesson was to create a simple, clickable button using CSS. A preview of this button can be found below.
