In this insightful session on CSS, we delve into various categories of tasks essential for mastering CSS, particularly in the context of web design.

1. CSS Box Model: We begin by understanding the CSS Box Model, crucial for managing spacing between elements and within elements themselves. This includes how to effectively use margins and paddings to create the desired layout.
2. Positioning Elements: The tutorial then covers the positioning of elements, highlighting three main types:
   • Positioning an element relative to another element.
   • Positioning an element with respect to the entire body or a parent element, regardless of other elements.
   • Positioning an element in a fixed place on the screen, unaffected by scrolling.
3. Aligning Elements: We explore various alignment techniques in CSS, ranging from center-aligning texts both horizontally and vertically to aligning lists and other content types in different orientations.
4. Displaying and Hiding Elements: The discussion includes techniques to show or hide elements, which is particularly useful in responsive design for different devices like desktops, tablets, or mobiles.
5. Pseudo Elements: The concept of pseudo elements in CSS is also introduced. This includes inserting elements before or after a particular element, and styling elements based on user interactions like hover or focus, without HTML modifications.
6. Flex Box Introduction: Finally, the session touches upon the Flex Box layout model, explaining how it aids in stacking elements either horizontally or vertically, and its significance in achieving complex web layouts.

The session emphasizes thinking in CSS, guiding viewers on how to approach a design requirement with CSS, identifying the necessary properties and syntax to achieve the desired design. This approach breaks down complex designs into manageable tasks, making it easier to apply CSS effectively.
