Basic Selectors

In CSS, selectors are patterns used to select the elements we want to style. Understanding selectors is fundamental to controlling the look and feel of our web pages. The most common selectors are element selectors, class selectors, and ID selectors. Additionally, we can group and combine selectors to apply styles efficiently.

Element selectors

An element selector targets HTML elements by their tag name. This means we can apply styles to all instances of a specific element on our page.
