What is a .CSS file?

A .CSS file, which stands for Cascading Style Sheet, is a type of file used to style and design the appearance of content on web pages. This file format is crucial for web developers and designers as it allows them to specify how HTML elements, such as text and images, should appear on a website. For instance, a CSS file can determine the text size, color, type of font used, spacing between lines, how elements are indented, the styles of borders, and the positioning of various elements on the page.
