🎨 Mastering CSS Specificity! 🖥️ I recently explored the fascinating world of CSS specificity in my web development journey. Here's a quick example I worked on, where I played around with different selectors to see how CSS rules apply when multiple styles are in conflict. In the code: Type Selector has a specificity of 1. Class Selectors each have a specificity of 10. Attribute Selector also carries a specificity of 10. The result? The attribute selector took precedence with a bright yellow background, overriding the color styles! 🟡 Understanding how CSS prioritizes styles is crucial for creating well-structured and maintainable code. #CSS #WebDevelopment #Frontend #CodingJourney #LearningByDoing

🌟 Day 7 of #100DaysOfCode: Web Development Journey! 🌟 Today, I leveled up by diving into CSS cascade, specificity, inheritance, and combining CSS selectors! 🖥️✨ It was amazing to see how these concepts work together to control the styling and behavior of elements on a webpage. 🎨💡 I’m feeling more confident in writing clean, efficient CSS. 💻💪 #DrGVishwanathan #WebDevelopment #CSS #FrontendDevelopment

I discovered the @scope rule 🤯 today. Tbh 🤫 I expected it to be there, though I know it must be 🆕. And as if the web was listening to me it had been spawned just for me ;) So I wrote ✍️ a tiny bit about it. https://lnkd.in/dQCfprHd In a nutshell 🐣 ``` <section> <style> @scope {...} </style> ... </section> ``` All inside the {...} applies ONLY to the DOM nodes inside the <section>. #css #frontend #development #web #browser

Week 3, Day 7 of Full Stack Development Journey: Exploring CSS CSS Transitions These allow for smooth, gradual changes in property values, enhancing the user experience on web pages. Key Properties: • transition-property: Specifies the CSS property to animate. • transition-duration: Defines the duration of the transition. • transition-timing-function: Describes the speed curve of the transition.(e.g., ease, linear, ease-in, ease-out). • transition-delay: Sets a delay before the transition starts. Example: .box { width: 100px; height: 100px; background-color: blue; transition: width 2s ease-in-out, background-color 1s; } .box:hover { width: 200px; background-color: red; } When you hover over the .box element, its width transitions from 100px to 200px over 2 seconds, and its background color changes from blue to red over 1 second. #FullStackDevelopment #CSS #WebDevelopment #LearningJourney #CSSTransitons #Transitions

Day 18 of my Web Development Journey: Why Inheritance in CSS is Key to Clean Code❓🤔 Today, I explored inheritance in CSS and its role in writing clean, maintainable code. By allowing certain styles (like fonts and colors) to automatically pass from parent to child elements, inheritance reduces redundancy and keeps code more concise. This leads to easier updates—change a style at the top level, and it cascades throughout the site. Inheritance ensures consistency, reduces repetition, and improves scalability. It’s a simple yet powerful way to streamline development! #WebDevelopmentJourney #CSS #CleanCode #FrontendDevelopment #LearningToCode
