HTML Structure

HTML has a nested structure:

HTML Head

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
 <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <title>Title of this page</title>
 </head>
 <body>
 </body>
</html>

Classes + ID's

HTML Tags can Have Classes or ID's a class can reappear on multiple elements in the HTML code.
an ID is more specific and only names one element.

<div class="box">
...
</div>
<div id="firstBox">
...
</div>

this can make it easier to target them in CSS:

.box {
background-color: green;
}
#firstBox {
background-color: blue;
}

in CSS classes are always written with a . before
and ID's are always written with a # before

Note you can also always use the HTML tag itself as a target, like this:

div {
background-color: green;
}

but sometimes you want to address only specific <div>, this is when you use Classes and ID's

Pseudo Classes in CSS

Hover describes whats happening when your cursor is moving over an element on the page

element:hover { [CSS properties here] }

A Link that has been clicked

element:active { [CSS properties here] }

Target an element only if it has [selector] inside

element:has([selector]) { [CSS properties here] }

Target an element only if it does not have [selector] inside

element:not([selector]) { [CSS properties here] }

CSS Position

To layout elements on your webpage you can give them a position
web example
static is the default value: Elements render in order, as they appear in the document flow
absolute positions the element relative to its first positioned (not static) ancestor element
fixed the element is positioned relative to the browser window
relative The element is positioned relative to its normal position
