Day 4: Understanding the Box Model in Web Development

Today, we will dive into a fundamental concept in web development: the CSS Box Model. Mastering the box model is crucial for effective layout and design of web pages. Let’s break down what the box model is and how it works.

Understanding the Box Model

The CSS box model is essentially a box that wraps around every HTML element. It consists of:

1. Content: The actual content of the box, where text and images appear.
2. Padding: Space between the content and the border. Padding is transparent.
3. Border: Surrounds the padding (if any) and the content.
4. Margin: Space outside the border, creating space between elements.
