CSS

Cascading Style Sheets: the language used to define the appearance of a website.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a styling language that determines how HTML elements are displayed on a web page. With CSS you control colours, fonts, margins, layout and animations on your website.

CSS in WordPress

In WordPress CSS is used in several ways:

  • Theme stylesheets: every WordPress theme has a style.css file that defines the appearance of your WordPress website.
  • Customiser: via the WordPress Customiser you can make simple CSS adjustments without writing code.
  • Additional CSS: in the WordPress dashboard you can add your own CSS rules under “Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS”.
  • Page builders: tools such as Elementor offer visual CSS editing without the need to write code.

Why is CSS important?

CSS is essential for a professional website. It determines not only the appearance but also the user experience. Well-written CSS ensures:

  • Responsive design: your website adapts to different screen sizes.
  • Fast load times: optimised CSS reduces file size and improves performance.
  • Consistency: a uniform design across all pages.
  • Accessibility: correct styling makes your website more usable for everyone.
