Spend A Full Day Immersed in HTML Semantics & CSS Selectors with Jen Kramer

Workshop Details

The big "C" in CSS stands for the cascade. Unfortunately, little time is spent learning what this means. In this course, learn to leverage inheritance, the cascade, and selectors to create web pages with leaner code and more efficient styling.
