Look out world! This up-and-coming coder has added some spice to his web pages! All jokes aside, I am very excited to have been able to start learning how to style these pages. They aren't great but its a start. Thank you to Peter for sending me the Markdown format; hopefully I did it correctly but if not please let me know! Here's a breakdown of my notes:
Color: May be displayed and specified multiple ways
Name: Limited to the browser selection but colors can be used
through names (i.e. cyan)
RGB: Controls colors by adjusting the RGB color model (Red,
Green, and Blue. The color cyan can instead be written as
rgb(0,255,255)
Hexadcimal: Number systems based off the number 0-9 and A-
F(representing 10-15) Cyan would then be written as 00ffff or
in this case can be shortened to 0ff
Text:
Font-family: Gives the ability to select what font is seen. In
the case that the user's browser does not support that font
having a backup font and then the general font category gives
the user a similar experience to what you intended (i.e. font- )
family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif
There are plenty of other ways to manipulate text including
text-align(orientation of the text), font-weight(boldness),
line-height(space between lines, standard number set at 1),
and lots more. Here's the MDN on the all the ways:
