Learn CSS Layout Techniques from Scratch! Hands-On CSS Positioning Course Learn to Design and Customise CSS Page Layouts

Nowadays, web designers and front-end developers have to build complex page layouts. Structuring webpages by designing layouts and positioning content is very important when it comes to web design and web development. When the elements are positioned correctly in a webpage, the webpage becomes more structured and the content becomes easily visible and digestible. Web designers and developers take advantage of different CSS layout techniques to structure webpages as they need. CSS layout techniques allow us to define the placement of elements on a web page, that is to  control where they are positioned with respect to their default position as per normal flow, the other elements around them, their parent container, or the main viewport/window.
