What is CSS
The code that controls how a web page looks: colors, fonts, spacing, and how a layout rearranges on a small screen.
In plain terms
CSS styles the parts that HTML defines. It handles layout, color, type, motion, and how a page reflows on a phone. Tailwind is the styling toolkit most current web teams use on top of it. Every web framework hands its output to CSS for the final appearance.
What it tells you about a developer
CSS depth shows up as interfaces that hold their layout on every screen size and stay usable with a keyboard and a screen reader. Look for responsive, accessible work in a candidate's shipped pages.
