  3. Responsive design — Media queries, mobile-first approach
  4. Tailwind CSS — Utility-first framework (faster styling for React/Next.js projects)
  5. Polish — Animations, variables, UI design principles

Modern CSS Features

Today's CSS goes beyond Flexbox and Grid. Key features covered across Scrimba's courses:

  • Container queries — Style based on container size, not viewport
  • :has() selector — Parent selectors (e.g., "form that has an error")
  • Aspect ratioaspect-ratio: 16/9 for videos and cards
  • CSS variables — Custom properties for themes and tokens
  • Cascade layers@layer for controlling specificity

Tailwind CSS

Tailwind uses a utility-first approach: you apply small, single-purpose classes (e.g., flex, justify-center, text-lg) instead of writing custom CSS. It's the standard for React and Next.js projects. Scrimba's Tailwind course teaches the basics; the Product Card project applies it to a real component. See Tailwind's docs for the philosophy.
