Once we’ve built our house, we need to decorate! Wallpaper, carpets, you name it.

CSS is basically this—it controls the style of your website.

The analogy falls a little flat as it CSS controls things like the position and general structure of the rooms in your website-house but we’ll pretend my analogy is perfect.

Let’s take a look at how CSS looks!

CSS example

This is an example of some CSS. First it tells the browser what it wants to change the appearance of, then inside the curly brackets it tells it a bunch of different features or “properties” and their respective values.

CSS reads colour a lot like PhotoShop, Figma and similar software does, so it's possible to recreate your designs very accurately in a website.
