​​What it does
​​
​​CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. CSS is used to give style and change the appearance of your structured HTML. CSS can be added to HTML in 3 ways:
  1. ​​Inline - by using the style attribute in HTML elements
  1. ​​Internal - by using a <style> element in the <head> section
  1. ​​External - by using an external CSS file, which is what we’re doing in our Student Survey
​​
​​It’s best practice to store your styles in an external stylesheet, linked to from your HTML document’s head. For the purpose of this class, all your styles will be stored using the external method.
​​
​​This is how you link to an external style sheet:
​​<!DOCTYPE html>
​​<html>
​​<head>
​​  <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/main.css">
​​</head>
