Understanding the CSS Cascade
Demystify CSS order, specificity and origin.
About the course
In CSS, the cascade is everything — there’s a hint why in its name. If you don’t understand how CSS rules are applied by browsers, you are in for a world of pain.
Over a series of five lessons, you’ll learn how browsers sort declarations to determine which selectors will “win”. The course includes a series of hands-on exercises on all aspects of the cascade from user style sheets to !important rules, specificity and more.
This course is taught by Russ Weakley, with a technical review by Aurelio De Rosa.
