Chapter 2: Selectors

In this chapter, you will learn about CSS selectors. Selectors are used to target specific elements on your website. Once you have selected an element, you can use CSS to style it.

Types of selectors

There are many different types of selectors, including:

Element selectors
Class selectors
ID selectors
Universal selectors

Using selectors

To use a selector, you simply need to specify the selector in your CSS code. For example, the following CSS code will select all of the <p> elements on your website:

p { color: red; }

This code will make all of the text on your website red.

Chapter 3: Properties

In this chapter, you will learn about CSS properties. Properties are used to specify the style of an element. For example, the color property can be used to specify the color of an element's text.
