Learn why we should nest our code.
BUT WHY THOUGH?

With nesting, you can avoid repeating common styles in multiple selectors. This helps reduce the size of your code and makes any future modifications easier.

EasierMaintenance

By using CSS nesting, any style chnages changes can be implemented better more efficiently. It promotes readability, maintainability, and & modularity in your stylesheets.

ImprovedCodeReadability

Nesting makes your code easier to read and understand for both yourself and other developers. It allows you to write cleaner, easier-to-read nested selectors, making code much easier to maintain and increase development productivity.

Grouping
Styles
Together

            Nesting helps you to group

            {TAB} related styles.

            And write CSS in

            {TAB} a nested hierarchy.

            This means

            {TAB} you don't have to

            {TAB} {TAB} {BOLD} repeat the entire selector {/BOLD} again

            {TAB} {TAB} when styling

            {TAB} {TAB} {TAB} specific child elements

            {TAB} {TAB} {TAB} or pseudo-selectors.
