At this point, I hope to have convinced you that it’s a really fun, flexible, and creative way of adding presentation to pages that didn’t exist prior to the advent and more progressive support of CSS. You can now write CSS rules efficiently modify your type and text using CSS typography and text-related properties. Adding visual interest to pages with color, backgrounds, and borders will help you be more creative than ever when it comes to your designs.
Now comes the truly exciting part: CSS layout. This is not an easy topic, largely due to the fact that support has been quite inconsistent for many layout-related properties. But times are changing, and progressive websites are making the most out of CSS for layout and positioning. You’ll learn the properties and methods used to design the layout of pages and also examine some of the workarounds available to manage graceful degradation of CSS-based layouts for older browsers, or those without appropriate CSS support.
