Daily Code 61 | Text Styling (πŸŸ₯ HTML & 🟦 CSS Course 3)

Just continuing with my HTML & CSS course today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3e-cpL7ofc

Let’s go!

My Code

Today was all about text styling. I knew most of it, but I found it interesting that the best practice is to first set the margins down to zero and then again recreate bottom margins. Good to know.

Anyways here the text stylings we looked at:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Text Styles</title>
  <style>
    p {
      font-family: Arial;
      margin-top: 0;
      margin-bottom: 0;
    }

    .video-title {
      font-weight: bold;
      font-size: 18px;
      width: 300px;
      line-height: 24px;
      margin-bottom: 5px;
    }

    .video-stats {
      font-size: 14px;
      color: rgb(96, 96, 96);
      margin-top: 0;
      margin-bottom: 20px;
    }

    .video-author {
      font-size: 14px;
      color: rgb(96, 96, 96);
      margin-top: 0;
      margin-bottom: 20px;
    }

    .video-description {
      font-size: 14px;
      color: rgb(96, 96, 96);
      width: 300px;
      line-height: 22px;
      margin-top: 0;
      margin-bottom: 100px;
    }

    .apple-text {
      margin-bottom: 50px;
      font-size: 14px;
      background-color: rgb(227, 65, 64);
      color: white;
      text-align: center;
      padding-top: 18px;
      padding-bottom: 18px;
    }

    .shop-link {
      cursor: pointer;
      margin-left: 12px;
    }

    .shop-link:hover {
      text-decoration: underline;
    }
  </style>
