CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets, a language used for the easy designing of web pages.
With CSS, developers can create the appealing visual part of the page that is so important to website visitors. They can define the text color, size, and layout of columns, responsiveness to different screen sizes, help developers create animation, etc. Without CSS, web pages would look rather boring and look more like documents than pages.
CSS has numerous benefits, including:
- easiness of learning due to simple syntax
- reduction in code length compared to pages written only with HTML
- faster development and pages leading due to shorter code
- more attributes and, consequently, design features compared to HTML
- better responsiveness to different devices
- a great and big community that can help to resolve difficult issues and provide learning materials
Every front-end developer has to know this language, along with HTML and JavaScript.
