1 00:00:00,900 --> 00:00:06,140 It's time to flaunt your inner designer because we're about to learn some success. 2 00:00:07,140 --> 00:00:13,050 To start off, I want to show you this website, if you look at it well, it's it's quite, quite pretty. 3 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:16,810 Look at that, that's really nice. 4 00:00:17,460 --> 00:00:22,530 Now, hopefully in the future, we can create something like this, but I want to show you what this 5 00:00:22,530 --> 00:00:24,960 website will look like without success. 6 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:28,080 Here it is. 7 00:00:32,229 --> 00:00:37,780 Pretty impressive, right, with just success, you'll be able to create something like this. 8 00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:40,400 So let's get started to Shelly. 9 00:00:43,290 --> 00:00:48,540 I've created here for us a simple website, nothing that we haven't seen before. 10 00:00:48,570 --> 00:00:57,030 You can see that I have created semantic tags with heter nav, an unordered list that has some links, 11 00:00:57,690 --> 00:01:02,770 a PITA and a P tag that's wrapped in another semantic tag called section. 12 00:01:03,570 --> 00:01:05,820 OK, so again, nothing crazy. 13 00:01:05,820 --> 00:01:11,670 If I go to the Web page, it's the exact same thing except for the about Elai doesn't have an anchor 14 00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:13,470 tag and then same with login. 15 00:01:14,500 --> 00:01:23,150 OK, so let's talk about success, the way that we would add success to something like this is while 16 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,540 we create a successful so let's do that. 17 00:01:25,810 --> 00:01:29,920 I'm going to create a new file that I'm going to save. 18 00:01:30,220 --> 00:01:33,550 Let's call it style dot success. 19 00:01:34,650 --> 00:01:42,480 If I save that, you'll see at the bottom over here that sublime text now has CSX as the file to. 20 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:49,630 The rules with success are very simple, we essentially have a selecter. 21 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:56,850 And then we have these squiggly brackets, and within it we put our property. 22 00:01:57,810 --> 00:02:04,560 Semicolon and then value, and then we have this special character as well at the end, and that is 23 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:05,660 pretty much success. 24 00:02:05,730 --> 00:02:12,900 You know this you can write access just like a XML, just a couple of syntactic rules. 25 00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:15,980 And once you get used to it, it's very, very simple. 26 00:02:16,650 --> 00:02:19,370 But obviously this doesn't really mean anything. 27 00:02:19,380 --> 00:02:21,410 So let's write actual code here. 28 00:02:21,930 --> 00:02:27,090 I'm going to comment that out by again, doing command slash and sublime text. 29 00:02:27,090 --> 00:02:30,690 You can see that the commenting is different than in HTML. 30 00:02:31,230 --> 00:02:36,210 And let's say that we want to make this home text read. 31 00:02:36,510 --> 00:02:41,760 The way we would do it is we want to select what's called the selector. 32 00:02:42,420 --> 00:02:46,620 So here we want to say that the two we want that to be read. 33 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,760 So all I would say is H to curly brackets. 34 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,680 And then within here I want to say the property. 35 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,580 I want to change the color to the value that is read. 36 00:02:58,050 --> 00:02:58,980 So if I save that. 37 00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:08,910 And refresh while nothing happens, and that's obvious, right, because how does this file know that 38 00:03:09,390 --> 00:03:10,400 this file exists? 39 00:03:10,740 --> 00:03:15,030 We have to link it somehow and we do that in the head. 40 00:03:15,030 --> 00:03:18,840 And we haven't talked too much about the hash tag element in the section. 41 00:03:19,260 --> 00:03:27,660 But by now, you can probably tell that head just contains information about what the page needs. 42 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:35,850 Maybe not the stuff that we see on a Web page other than the title, but meta tags and information that 43 00:03:35,850 --> 00:03:37,320 we need for the website. 44 00:03:38,310 --> 00:03:48,870 OK, so in here, we can actually link to this stylesheet that we call style that comes with a link 45 00:03:48,870 --> 00:03:49,140 to. 46 00:03:50,170 --> 00:03:58,270 And this link tag allows us to link this ASML file to something else, and again, so biotech's has 47 00:03:58,270 --> 00:03:59,400 something very useful here. 48 00:03:59,410 --> 00:04:00,400 If I had tab. 49 00:04:01,450 --> 00:04:07,270 Look at that, it auto fills it for me, these are the standard attributes that you'll see to link to 50 00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:11,810 success, so you just have to get used to it and eventually you'll become second nature. 51 00:04:12,100 --> 00:04:16,300 So we have our yelle here, which is the adiabatic before relation. 52 00:04:16,300 --> 00:04:21,820 It just specifies what relationship this link will have and we'll have the default style sheet. 53 00:04:22,420 --> 00:04:24,940 And then for the type this is the media type. 54 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,780 We want to say that it's a text file. 55 00:04:27,790 --> 00:04:32,890 We're essentially telling e-mail, hey, just a heads up we're linking to access file here. 56 00:04:33,220 --> 00:04:35,400 And the of this should be familiar. 57 00:04:35,410 --> 00:04:37,260 We're going to link to Starbucks. 58 00:04:37,750 --> 00:04:41,440 So if I type in style dot success. 59 00:04:43,260 --> 00:04:44,010 And save. 60 00:04:45,450 --> 00:04:46,290 Let's refresh. 61 00:04:47,710 --> 00:04:55,150 Turns red, and just to let you know, that index, that e-mail is in the same folder as style that 62 00:04:55,150 --> 00:05:00,660 says we can check it over here if I click on exercise, you see that? 63 00:05:00,790 --> 00:05:01,150 Yep. 64 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,550 I have style that success with index. 65 00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:05,730 Perfect. 66 00:05:06,220 --> 00:05:12,510 OK, now what if we also want to make the paragraph over here, this Hypercolor as well? 67 00:05:13,050 --> 00:05:18,180 Well, again, we would do The Selecter and then we'll do Caulder and let's do pink. 68 00:05:19,060 --> 00:05:22,550 I save refresh and it's pink. 69 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,010 Hopefully you can see that. 70 00:05:25,090 --> 00:05:30,520 You also see here that sublime text does some really nice coloring for us, so if I for example, I 71 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:36,520 put a prop. that doesn't exist like a misspelled color, well, you see that it doesn't highlight it 72 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,960 properly with the blue color. 73 00:05:38,110 --> 00:05:39,520 And you know that you've made a mistake. 74 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,590 Again, another great feature of sublime text. 75 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,130 So success, what does it actually stand for? 76 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:49,960 Well, it stands for cascading style sheets and style sheets. 77 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,240 That makes sense that we're creating style sheets. 78 00:05:52,250 --> 00:05:53,890 But what does cascading mean? 79 00:05:55,090 --> 00:06:02,110 Cascading means that it always takes the selecter, that is at the end. 80 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,910 And that's simplified terms, but I want to demonstrate for you what that means. 81 00:06:07,390 --> 00:06:11,680 So let's say at the bottom over here, I do this again paragraph. 82 00:06:11,890 --> 00:06:14,260 I want color to be green. 83 00:06:15,220 --> 00:06:17,570 Well, if I save this, what do you think will happen? 84 00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:18,520 Let's refresh and see. 85 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,230 It turns green and why is that? 86 00:06:22,260 --> 00:06:30,030 Well, because it's cascading, it's saying, OK, I'll set H two to read, OK, I'll set paragraph 87 00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:30,840 to pink. 88 00:06:31,950 --> 00:06:39,540 And then it says, OK, I'll set P to green so you can see here as it trickles down and cascades, it 89 00:06:39,540 --> 00:06:43,740 takes the last input that it receives for a specific selector. 90 00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:49,680 We'll get more into the cascading effects of success in a later video. 91 00:06:49,690 --> 00:06:53,980 But I want you to understand the basic concept around it, OK? 92 00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:58,350 I also wanted to show you something cool that you can do with Chrome, and we did this in the first 93 00:06:58,350 --> 00:07:01,710 couple of video series, but now you'll actually understand what I mean. 94 00:07:01,740 --> 00:07:05,240 So again, view developer developer tools. 95 00:07:05,550 --> 00:07:09,980 And from now on, I'll be using this shortcut to open it and you'll be able to do it as well. 96 00:07:11,890 --> 00:07:17,320 And if you remember, we have our stalled out, and if we click on the style tab, we have the team 97 00:07:17,340 --> 00:07:21,250 on the left stools over here and nothing for the styles. 98 00:07:21,790 --> 00:07:24,070 But if I now go into my. 99 00:07:25,210 --> 00:07:28,850 Home and I click on that, it'll show you color red. 100 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:36,700 So Google Chrome, which allows us to see our access styles so I can even add stuff here and I could 101 00:07:36,700 --> 00:07:39,410 say background color. 102 00:07:40,350 --> 00:07:41,200 Let's do. 103 00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:43,890 Look at that. 104 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,910 So this is a really good way to play with your website and add colors you can check and uncheck here. 105 00:07:50,150 --> 00:07:56,160 And also if you see something on a website that you really, really like, you can go to that element. 106 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:57,720 Let's let's try it off here. 107 00:07:57,740 --> 00:07:58,700 Let's go to. 108 00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:02,900 Wait, but why dotcom? 109 00:08:04,670 --> 00:08:08,930 And let's say that we really, really want to know how. 110 00:08:10,010 --> 00:08:12,980 This was made we can right click. 111 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:14,960 Do inspect. 112 00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:22,610 We'll take us exactly to that element and then we can see here some of the properties, the properties 113 00:08:22,610 --> 00:08:23,360 that they've used. 114 00:08:24,370 --> 00:08:28,450 And same here, you can see that the background color is this and so on and so forth. 115 00:08:29,630 --> 00:08:31,060 OK, let's close that for now. 116 00:08:32,470 --> 00:08:42,280 The last thing I want to leave you with is this close this what if I also want the above page to have 117 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:42,669 stars? 118 00:08:42,970 --> 00:08:44,380 And same with the login page. 119 00:08:44,380 --> 00:08:50,440 As you can see, there's no style for these ones, but we want the same thing for the about and login 120 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:50,770 page. 121 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,460 Well, as you can imagine, we copy the link tag. 122 00:08:55,740 --> 00:08:57,240 And we go to about. 123 00:08:58,430 --> 00:09:04,250 We link it on to here and then log in, we can again link it here. 124 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:10,880 I save both of these files and now if I refresh and go to about look at that. 125 00:09:11,180 --> 00:09:12,080 We have our styles. 126 00:09:13,210 --> 00:09:17,920 And you may be wondering, well, what if I want different styles for maybe for the logging, I want 127 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:18,950 this to be blue instead? 128 00:09:19,660 --> 00:09:22,630 Well, we can actually create multiple style sheets. 129 00:09:22,780 --> 00:09:31,080 So I can say, for example, let's create a new file and we'll call it style to success. 130 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:32,590 I say that. 131 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,300 And this time I'm going to say that I want my to. 132 00:09:38,220 --> 00:09:39,240 To have color. 133 00:09:41,220 --> 00:09:51,420 I say that I go into my login e-mail and now I'll make login reference the second stylesheet instead 134 00:09:51,420 --> 00:09:52,050 of the first one. 135 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,510 So now if I refresh. 136 00:09:55,790 --> 00:10:04,340 Log-in is referencing our style to excess, but all the other ones are still referencing the old one. 137 00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:11,390 OK, Ally, there is one last thing that I want to add, and that is that this is the common way of 138 00:10:11,390 --> 00:10:12,410 adding styles. 139 00:10:12,830 --> 00:10:18,260 But there is actually two other ways that you won't see us often, especially when you're starting off. 140 00:10:18,590 --> 00:10:21,650 But I wanted to show it to you so that you're not surprised. 141 00:10:22,740 --> 00:10:29,520 The first way of doing it is something called inline styles, and this was the original way that we 142 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:36,810 incorporate as styles into our e-mail, and that is by specifying within the element, let's say let's 143 00:10:36,810 --> 00:10:38,110 go with head over here. 144 00:10:39,030 --> 00:10:41,970 We want to say style so it has a style attribute. 145 00:10:42,810 --> 00:10:48,030 And then within here we can do the background color. 146 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:55,720 Let's do green and refresh, and we're at the about page right now, we change that for index that I 147 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:55,990 assume. 148 00:10:55,990 --> 00:10:58,300 Also, let's go over here and look at that. 149 00:10:58,330 --> 00:10:59,560 We have the green background. 150 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:05,410 And if you want to add more, again, we do color red. 151 00:11:05,740 --> 00:11:09,130 Let's save and refresh and look at that. 152 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,130 The header has the color red. 153 00:11:12,130 --> 00:11:17,290 And you'll see here that these ones are still purple because they are linked tags and they have the 154 00:11:17,290 --> 00:11:18,280 default linking. 155 00:11:18,730 --> 00:11:21,070 OK, so that's one way. 156 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,660 And third and last way is in the head. 157 00:11:25,660 --> 00:11:30,790 You can actually create Celltex and then within these style tags. 158 00:11:32,140 --> 00:11:37,720 You can enter CCWs, so if you just refresh here, so we have a fresh, clean slate. 159 00:11:37,900 --> 00:11:41,260 I can now say Sue Elai this time. 160 00:11:41,260 --> 00:11:50,170 So all the lists I want the lists to have background color of purple. 161 00:11:51,580 --> 00:11:58,080 So if how save this and refresh everything is purple and that looks pretty yucky. 162 00:11:58,150 --> 00:12:03,670 You can keep adding stuff on here and I can say color white, save refresh. 163 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,220 And it changed the color to white. 164 00:12:07,510 --> 00:12:13,450 Now, you may be wondering, why don't we just do it like this, this seems a lot simpler than linking 165 00:12:13,450 --> 00:12:15,010 to another file. 166 00:12:15,940 --> 00:12:21,550 Well, the reason is that for this website, everything is fairly small, is just a couple of lines 167 00:12:21,550 --> 00:12:22,150 of success. 168 00:12:22,150 --> 00:12:27,010 But you can imagine with websites, as they get bigger and bigger, you'll have hundreds and hundreds 169 00:12:27,010 --> 00:12:28,540 of lines of success. 170 00:12:28,660 --> 00:12:33,280 And having one massive file will be very, very challenging to maintain. 171 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:40,450 You can also think of it as if you were working on an e-mail and you also had a team of designers that 172 00:12:40,450 --> 00:12:42,250 were working on a case file. 173 00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:49,510 You want to have a separation where you have some team members working on the success and then some 174 00:12:49,510 --> 00:12:52,170 team members working on the e-mail. 175 00:12:52,510 --> 00:12:55,720 And that is a concept called separation of concerns. 176 00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,390 And it's a fancy way of saying that everybody just worry about what they're good at. 177 00:13:00,730 --> 00:13:07,360 So ASML just worry about text and CSFs just worry about Stiles. 178 00:13:07,690 --> 00:13:13,060 This phrase separation of concerns is something that will
