Display

Introduction to the Display Property

The display property in CSS is fundamental for controlling the layout of elements. Here's a brief overview:

• Inline vs. Block: inline elements do not start on a new line and only take up as much width as necessary. In contrast, block elements start on a new line and occupy the full width available.

• Flexbox and Grid: Use flex or grid values to create more complex layouts. flex is used for one-dimensional layouts, while grid is suitable for two-dimensional layouts.

• Responsive Design: These properties can help create responsive web designs, adjusting layout based on screen size.

• None Value: Setting display to none removes the element from the document layout, making it invisible but still part of the DOM, unlike visibility: hidden, which hides an element but retains its layout space.
