The Universal Selector
In the first step of this exercise we were introduced to the
universal selector
. In
CSS the asterisk,
*
, is the universal selector, which selects every element. Rather
than listing every single element imaginable, we can use the asterisk as a catch-all
to select all elements for us.
The
:before
and
:after
pseudo-elements also mentioned in this step are ele-
ments that can be dynamically generated with CSS. We're not going to be using
these elements within our project; however, when using the universal selector it's
a good practice to also include these pseudo-elements in case they should ever ap-
pear.
