We’ll cover

You’ll explore modern CSS techniques that help you write cleaner, more flexible, and more robust styles — with a focus on what’s practical and useful today.

  • Modern approaches to layouts using Grid and Subgrid
  • Media, Container, and Style Queries
  • Modern selectors, such as :has(), :user-valid, and much more
  • Fluid spacing and typography using clamp() and new units like lh, cqw, dvb
  • New approaches to user interaction
  • Better developer experience with native nesting, cascade layers, and scoped styles
  • Container-aware component design and layout fallbacks
  • And a collection of small, practical tips and lesser-known features you can use right away
