Color and Backgrounds in CSS

  CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) allows you to control the color and background of HTML elements, which is fundamental for the design and aesthetics of web pages.

  Using the `color` property, we can define the color of text, while the `background` property is used to set the background color, images, gradients, and more.

Color and Background Properties

•   color: Changes the color of text. Example: `color: red;`.


•   background-color: Sets the background color of an element. Example: `background-color: blue;`.


•   background-image: Allows you to set an image as a background. Example: `background-image: url('image.jpg');`.


•   linear-gradient: Creates a background with a gradient. Example: `background: linear-gradient(to right, red, yellow);`.

  The proper use of colors and backgrounds not only improves the visual appearance of a page but can also affect readability and usability.
