Color Matters
Choose a Great
Palette
Use palettes to create
harmonious colors that
attract and engage your
visitor's attention.
The Importance of
Good Contrast
Make sure your colors
have enough contrast to
be easily legible, and
avoid using too many
different colors that can
be overwhelming.
Color Scheme
Examples
Play around with different
colors and schemes to
create unique and visually
appealing designs.
Playing with Fonts
Font Sizes
Choose a font size that is easy to read
and consistent across your website.
Font Families
Selecting appropriate font families
can convey the tone and mood of
your site. Serif, sans-serif, and display
are three popular categories.
Font Pairing
Pairing fonts with contrasting styles
can give your website a unique and
cohesive look. But be careful to not
overdo it.
Custom Fonts
Adding downloadable fonts to your
site can make it more unique and
visually appealing, but be mindful of
load times and licensing restrictions.
The Art of Backgrounds
Gradients and
Patterns
Use gradients and
patterns to add depth
and texture to your
website background.
Background Color
Schemes
Create color schemes that
complement your
website's overall design.
Background Images
Add images that fit the
theme of your website
and don't distract from
your content.
The Power of Borders
1 Shape and Style
Explore different border
styles, from rounded to
squared to customized
ones that fit your website
style.
2 Creating Dividers
Use borders to create
dividers that separate
different sections of your
site's content.
3 Adding Effects
Make your border stand out by adding subtle effects like shadow or glow
Margins and Padding
1
What Are Margins and
Padding?
Margins define the space between
elements on your website, while
padding defines the space between
an element and its content.
2
Why They Matter
Using margins and padding
effectively can improve the overall
layout and spacing of your website,
making it more visually appealing
and easier to navigate.
3
How to Use Them
Experiment with different margin and
padding values to find what works
best for your website. Consider the
overall design and the spacing of
different elements to make it look
balanced and harmonious.
Positioning Basics
Relative
Positioning
Elements are
positioned relative to
their normal position.
Fixed Positioning
Elements are
positioned relative to
the browser window
and don't move even
when the page is
scrolled.
Static and
Absolute
Positioning
Absolute position is
relative to the nearest
positioned ancestor
and static position is
the default position.
Absolute Positioning
Parallax Effect
Use absolute positioning
with a z-index and
background-attachment:
fixed to create a floating
effect.
Positioning with
Percentages
You can use percentages
instead of pixels for
absolute positioning.
Centering Elements
Use absolute positioning
and negative margins to
center elements perfectly.
Opacity Basics
1
What is Opacity?
Opacity is the degree
to which an object
blocks light or is
transparent.
2
Using Opacity in
CSS
The opacity property
sets the opacity level
for an element.
3
Cross-Browser
Opacity
Use CSS
preprocessors like
SASS or LESS to
generate cross-
browser opacity rules.
CSS Animations Basics
1 What are CSS Animations?
CSS Animations are a way to create more engaging and interactive
designs with transitions and animations.
2 Keyframe Animations
Keyframe animations define the in-between states of an animation and
allow for more customization than transitions.
3 Animation Properties
Use the animation-timing-function, animation-duration, animation-delay,
and animation-iteration-count properties to control animations.
Animation Timing and Easing
Timing Functions
Timing functions control
the pace of an animation,
use ease-in, ease-out,
cubic-bezier, or steps().
Easing and Direction
Direction property allows
us to change the direction
of an animation. Easing
specifies the direction of
the change in speed
during an animation.
Animation Delays
and Fill Mode
Delays add a delay to the
start of an animation. Fill
mode specifies a style for
the element on
completion of an
animation.
Putting it all Together
Principles of
Good Animation
Consistency,
simplicity, and focus
are key to creating
good animations.
Using
Combination of
Properties
With careful
combination of all
these properties, we
can create animations
that bring our designs
to life.
Examples
See these concepts in
action with examples
of beautiful,
interactive animations
from the web.
The Future of CSS
1 CSS Grid
Flexible and powerful
layout tool that makes
complex layouts easier
than ever.
2 CSS Variables
Dynamic variables that
can be assigned to styles
and reused throughout a
project.
3 CSS Shapes
Create advanced shapes and designs with CSS Shapes, which
allows text to flow around shapes.
Your Turn to Revamp Your Site
Step 1: Define
Your Goals
Clarify your website
goals before you can
decide on the visual
style that best fits your
site's needs.
Step 2:
Brainstorm Your
Design
Think about color
schemes, fonts,
background, and other
visual elements that will
work to achieve your
website's goals.
Step 3: Make a
Plan and Start
Building
Create a wireframe,
organize your content,
and start coding using
the CSS properties and
layouts you've learned
today.
Final Thoughts
Consistency is
Key
Use the same design
elements consistently
throughout your
website to give your
users a seamless
experience.
Balance and
Harmony
Ensure there's a
balance and harmony
between all of the
different elements -
colors, fonts,
backgrounds, and
layouts - used in your
website design.
Don't Overdo It
Focus on clarity,
functionality, and
usability over
flashiness. Remember
that less is often
more.
