Dev Tools¶
- Grid & Flex box editor
- We can change the colour in the browser in the styles tab.
- Going to the computed tab we can see the styles that are being applied to the element and see where they are coming from.
- This method can be easier to find which code is applying the style rather than searching in the styles tab.
For box model visualization padding: green, border: yellow and margin: orange.
- We can adjust values directly in the box model.
- We can toggle the hover state of an element
- We can also toggle other states
- Finding out particular media queries a site is using
- If we want to apply a style to the selected element we do it in
element.style
in the styles tab. - But if we want to create a new style altogether like having a different colour for all the paragraph elements then we can use the + symbol.
- Firefox is great for debugging CSS it can tell you why some style is not working
