CSS simplifies the design of web pages to make them look more amazing. CSS is referred to as Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and is widely used to work for enhancing the look and feel of a website or web pages.

CSS has the potential of handling the design of all the web pages at once. It defines the layout of your web pages so that the styling looks great on multiple devices also.

Why CSS

When Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) wasn’t introduced, developers only had HTML to work on websites. All the presentation attributes were part of the HTML markup. The font, font colors, text color, background color, borders, etc were explicitly added. For every web page, the information was added again. Well, this repetition led to more complex and larger documents.

CSS was introduced and the work became easier since only a single file need to be changed to change the complete layout of a website. The information is moved to a style sheet, which leads to simpler HTML.
