<h4>Explanation</h4>
<p>Note: <code>1rem</code> is usually <code>16px</code>.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><code>@keyframes</code> defines an animation that has two states, where the element changes <code>opacity</code> and is translated up on the 2D plane using <code>transform: translateY()</code>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>.bouncing-loader</code> is the parent container of the bouncing circles and uses <code>display: flex</code> and <code>justify-content: center</code> to position them in the center.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>.bouncing-loader > div</code>, targets the three child <code>div</code>s of the parent to be styled. The <code>div</code>s are given a width and height of <code>1rem</code>, using <code>border-radius: 50%</code> to turn them from
squares to circles.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>margin: 3rem 0.2rem</code> specifies that each circle has a top/bottom margin of <code>3rem</code> and left/right margin of <code>0.2rem</code> so that they do not directly touch each other, giving them some breathing room.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>animation</code> is a shorthand property for the various animation properties: <code>animation-name</code>, <code>animation-duration</code>, <code>animation-iteration-count</code>, <code>animation-direction</code> are used.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>nth-child(n)</code> targets the element which is the nth child of its parent.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>animation-delay</code> is used on the second and third <code>div</code> respectively, so that each element does not start the animation at the same time.</p>
</li>
</ol>

</style>
<h4>Explanation</h4>
<p><code>padding-top</code> on the <code>::before</code> pseudo-element causes the height of the element to equal a percentage of its width. <code>100%</code> therefore means the element's height will always be <code>100%</code> of the width,
creating a responsive square.
</p>
<p>This method also allows content to be placed inside the element normally.</p>

</style>
<h4>Explanation</h4>
<p>You can create a ordered list using any type of HTML.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><code>counter-reset</code> Initializes a counter, the value is the name of the counter. By default, the counter starts in 0. This property can also be used to change its value to any specific number.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>counter-increment</code> Used in element that will be countable. Once <code>counter-reset</code> initialized, a counter's value can be increased or decreased.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>counter(name, style)</code> Displays the value of a section counter. Generally used in a <code>content</code> property. This function can receive two parameters, the first as the name of the counter and the second one can be <code>decimal</code> or <code>upper-roman</code> (<code>decimal</code> by default).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>counters(counter, string, style)</code> Displays the value of a section counter. Generally used in a <code>content</code> property. This function can receive three parameters, the first as the name of the counter, the second one
you can include a string which comes after the counter and the third one can be <code>decimal</code> or <code>upper-roman</code> (<code>decimal</code> by default).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A CSS counter can be especially useful for making outlined lists, because a new instance of the counter is automatically created in child elements. Using the <code>counters()</code> function, separating text can be inserted between different
levels of nested counters.</p>

<li>100% height and width on '.center' allows the element to fill the available space within its parent element.</li>
<li><code>display: table-cell</code> on '.center > span' allows the element to behave like an HTML element.</li>
<li><code>text-align: center</code> on '.center > span' centers the child element horizontally.</li>

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>position: relative</code> on the element establishes a Cartesian positioning context for psuedo-elements.</li>
<li><code>z-index: 1</code> establishes a new stacking context.</li>
<li><code>::after</code> defines a pseudo-element.</li>
<li><code>position: absolute</code> takes the pseudo element out of the flow of the document and positions it in relation to the parent.</li>
<li><code>width: 100%</code> and <code>height: 100%</code> sizes the pseudo-element to fill its parent's dimensions, making it equal in size.</li>
<li><code>background: inherit</code> causes the pseudo-element to inherit the linear gradient specified on the element.</li>
<li><code>top: 0.5rem</code> offsets the pseudo-element down slightly from its parent.</li>
<li><code>filter: blur(0.4rem)</code> will blur the pseudo-element to create the appearance of a shadow underneath.</li>
<li><code>opacity: 0.7</code> makes the pseudo-element partially transparent.</li>
<li><code>z-index: -1</code> positions the pseudo-element behind the parent but in front of the background.</li>

<ol>
<li><code>transition: max-height: 0.5s cubic-bezier(...)</code> specifies that changes to <code>max-height</code> should be transitioned over 0.5 seconds, using an <code>ease-out-quint</code> timing function.</li>
<li><code>overflow: hidden</code> prevents the contents of the hidden element from overflowing its container.</li>
<li><code>max-height: 0</code> specifies that the element has no height initially.</li>
<li><code>.target:hover > .el</code> specifies that when the parent is hovered over, target a child <code>.el</code> within it and use the <code>--max-height</code> variable which was defined by JavaScript.</li>
</ol>
<h5 data-type="JavaScript">JavaScript</h5>
<ol>
<li><code>el.scrollHeight</code> is the height of the element including overflow, which will change dynamically based on the content of the element.</li>
<li><code>el.style.setProperty(...)</code> sets the <code>--max-height</code> CSS variable which is used to specify the <code>max-height</code> of the element the target is hovered over, allowing it to transition smoothly from 0 to auto.</li>

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>display: inline-block</code> makes the block <code>p</code> an <code>inline-block</code> to prevent the underline from spanning the entire parent width rather than just the content (text).</li>
<li><code>position: relative</code> on the element establishes a Cartesian positioning context for pseudo-elements.</li>
<li><code>::after</code> defines a pseudo-element.</li>
<li><code>position: absolute</code> takes the pseudo element out of the flow of the document and positions it in relation to the parent.</li>
<li><code>width: 100%</code> ensures the pseudo-element spans the entire width of the text block.</li>
<li><code>transform: scaleX(0)</code> initially scales the pseudo element to 0 so it has no width and is not visible.</li>
<li><code>bottom: 0</code> and <code>left: 0</code> position it to the bottom left of the block.</li>
<li><code>transition: transform 0.25s ease-out</code> means changes to <code>transform</code> will be transitioned over 0.25 seconds with an <code>ease-out</code> timing function.</li>
<li><code>transform-origin: bottom right</code> means the transform anchor point is positioned at the bottom right of the block.</li>
<li><code>:hover::after</code> then uses <code>scaleX(1)</code> to transition the width to 100%, then changes the <code>transform-origin</code> to <code>bottom left</code> so that the anchor point is reversed, allowing it transition out in the
other direction when hovered off.</li>

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>position: relative</code> on the parent establishes a Cartesian positioning context for pseudo-elements.</li>
<li><code>::after</code> defines a pseudo element.</li>
<li><code>background-image: linear-gradient(...)</code> adds a linear gradient that fades from transparent to white (top to bottom).</li>
<li><code>position: absolute</code> takes the pseudo element out of the flow of the document and positions it in relation to the parent.</li>
<li><code>width: 240px</code> matches the size of the scrolling element (which is a child of the parent that has the pseudo element).</li>
<li><code>height: 25px</code> is the height of the fading gradient pseudo-element, which should be kept relatively small.</li>
<li><code>bottom: 0</code> positions the pseudo-element at the bottom of the parent.</li>
<li><code>pointer-events: none</code> specifies that the pseudo-element cannot be a target of mouse events, allowing text behind it to still be selectable/interactive.</li>

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>text-shadow</code> uses 4 values with offsets that cover a 4x4 px area to ensure the underline has a "thick" shadow that covers the line where descenders clip it. Use a color that matches the background. For a larger font, use a larger
<code>px</code> size. Additional values can create an even thicker shadow, and subpixel values can also be used.</li>
<li><code>background-image: linear-gradient(...)</code> creates a 90deg gradient using the text color (<code>currentColor</code>).</li>
<li>The <code>background-*</code> properties size the gradient as 100% of the width of the block and 1px in height at the bottom and disables repetition, which creates a 1px underline beneath the text.</li>
<li>The <code>::selection</code> pseudo selector rule ensures the text shadow does not interfere with text selection.

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>position: relative</code> on the element establishes a Cartesian positioning context for pseudo elements.</li>
<li><code>::after</code> defines a pseudo element.</li>
<li><code>background-image: url(...)</code> adds the SVG shape (a 24x12 triangle) as the background image of the pseudo element, which repeats by default. It must be the same color as the block that is being separated. For other shapes, we can
use

<li><code>position: absolute</code> takes the pseudo element out of the flow of the document and positions it in relation to the parent.</li>
<li><code>width: 100%</code> ensures the element stretches the entire width of its parent.</li>
<li><code>height: 12px</code> is the same height as the shape.</li>

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<p>This effect is styling only the <code><label></code> element to look like a toggle switch, and hiding the actual <code><input></code> checkbox by positioning it offscreen. When clicking the label associated with the <code><input></code> element, it sets the <code><input></code> checkbox into the <code>:checked</code> state.</p>
<ol>
<li>The <code>for</code> attribute associates the <code><label></code> with the appropriate <code><input></code> checkbox element by its <code>id</code>.</li>
<li><code>.switch::after</code> defines a pseudo-element for the <code><label></code> to create the circular knob.</li>
<li><code>input[type='checkbox']:checked + .switch::after</code> targets the <code><label></code>'s pseudo-element's style when the checkbox is <code>checked</code>.</li>
<li><code>transform: translateX(20px)</code> moves the pseudo-element (knob) 20px to the right when the checkbox is <code>checked</code>.</li>
<li><code>background-color: #7983ff;</code> sets the background-color of the switch to a different color when the checkbox is <code>checked</code>.</li>
<li><code>.offscreen</code> moves the <code><input></code> checkbox element, which does not comprise any part of the actual toggle switch, out of the flow of document and positions it far away from the view, but does not hide it so it
is accessible via keyboard and screen readers.</li>
<li><code>transition: all 0.3s</code> specifies all property changes will be transitioned over 0.3 seconds, therefore transitioning the <code><label></code>'s <code>background-color</code> and the pseudo-element's <code>transform</code> property when the checkbox is checked.</li>

<p>Vertically and horizontally centers a child element within its parent element using <code>position: absolute</code> and <code>transform: translate()</code> (as an alternative to <code>flexbox</code> or <code>display: table</code>). Similar

<h4>Explanation</h4>
<p>

</p>
<p>The color of the border is the color of the triangle. The side the triangle tip points corresponds to the opposite <code>border-*</code> property. For example, a color on <code>border-top</code> means the arrow points downward.</p>
<p>Experiment with the <code>px</code> values to change the proportion of the triangle.</p>

overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
width: 200px;
}
</style>
<h4>Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>overflow: hidden</code> prevents the text from overflowing its dimensions (for a block, 100% width and auto height).</li>
<li><code>white-space: nowrap</code> prevents the text from exceeding one line in height.</li>
<li><code>text-overflow: ellipsis</code> makes it so that if the text exceeds its dimensions, it will end with an ellipsis.</li>
<li><code>width: 200px;</code> ensures the element has a dimension, to know when to get ellipsis</li>
</ol>
