? Comments in CSS

Comments let you add notes or explanations inside your CSS code — they are ignored by browsers and don’t affect how styles work.

Syntax of CSS Comments

/* This is a comment */

• Starts with /*

• Ends with */

• Can span multiple lines

Examples

Single line comment:

/* This sets the main color */body {  background-color: #f0f0f0;}

Multi-line comment:

/*  This is a multi-line comment.  You can write as much as you want here.*/h1 {  color: navy;}

Why Use Comments?

• Explain complex code or intentions.

• Temporarily disable CSS rules without deleting them.

• Organize code into sections.

Important Notes

• Nested comments are NOT allowed in CSS.
  This is invalid:

  /* Outer comment  /* Inner comment */*/

• Comments can appear anywhere in your CSS file, even between selectors or properties.
