What is Adobe Dreamweaver?

Adobe Dreamweaver is a web design program that is used to create HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files. It is also used to create forms and databases. Adobe Dreamweaver can be used to create websites, online applications, or presentations.

Introduction to CSS

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in markup language. A style sheet is a collection of rules that tells a web browser how to display text, fonts, colors, images, and other content. Unlike HTML, which is the markup language used to create pages on the World Wide Web, CSS is used to control the presentation of documents written in a markup language.
