The Box Model

The Box Model is a way web browsers understand the layout of a webpage, focusing on each element's space. Each element is like a box, consisting of four parts: the content (what's inside), padding (space around content), border (edge surrounding the element), and margin (space outside the border separating it from other elements). These parts determine the element's size and position on the page, making it easier for designers and developers to control layout and spacing accurately. Understanding the Box Model is essential for creating well-structured, visually appealing web pages.
