CSS has grown from a language for formatting documents into a robust language for designing web applications. Its syntax is easy to learn, making CSS a great entry point for those new to programming. Indeed, it's often the second language that developers learn, right behind HTML. As CSS's feature set and abilities have grown, so has its depth. In this collection of books, we'll be exploring some of the amazing things that developers can do with CSS today; tasks that in the past might only have been achievable with some pretty complex JavaScript, if at all. This collection contains: Modern CSS, which explores topics like variable fonts and transforms, and shows how they might be used in the real world CSS Grid Layout: 5 Practical Projects, which shows five complete projects that utilize the Grid Layout Layout module CSS Tools & Skills which looks at essential CSS tools and skills for modern front-end developers
"The Book of CSS3" uses real-world examples to teach developers the fundamentals of the CSS3 specification, highlighting the latest developments and future features, while paying close attention to current browser implementations.

Many new and improved features have landed in CSS over the past few years, and a cross- browser effort to improve compatibility has made the language more stable than ever! The coordinated implementation of new features across browsers these days means we can start to use these features pretty much as soon as they appear, which is great for keeping our stylesheets as simple as possible. A few, single-line properties can now replace multi-line, hacky solutions. In some cases, newly available features may even mean we can remove JavaScript workarounds we once needed to get around old limitations! In this tutorial, we'll review these enhancements to layout, responsive design, element styling, properties, and selectors, and also peek at upcoming features; we'll take a deep-dive into using the CSS :has() selector for scaling reusable components; discover the practical uses of container queries; and also learn how to create responsive CSS layouts without using media queries
