Selectors

Selectors are patterns used in CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to identify and target specific elements on a webpage so that styles can be applied to them. Think of them as instructions that tell your browser which parts of a webpage to modify—such as all headings, a specific paragraph, or links within a certain section. By using selectors, web designers can control the appearance of various elements systematically and efficiently, ensuring a cohesive and visually appealing website layout without having to style each element individually.
