Summary: font-size: rem width: % in combination with a max-width, ch height: question urself "do i rly need to set height" if yes -> use a min-height padding/margin: rem or em, kevin often uses em for padding of buttons media queries: em px only for little things like shadows, borders etc. Great Video :)
Ok so I’m 37 years young and decided to learn html/css with absolutely 0 experience and knowledge about coding or programming. Your channel has made things way easier for me to understand. So I guess I just want to say thank you and recognize the importance of sharing and the impact you’re making.... thanks!
@@rellison68 thanks Robert, and good luck to you too! Agree with you, channels like this show some of the greatest benefits of platforms like UA-cam... sharing IS caring
@@samuelgoncalves5616 thanks Samuel! My wife started doing volunteering at her job, but one requirement is that whoever they’re volunteering for, must have a website and must of them don’t have one... so I said to her... I can build them a website, I’m sure that’s easy! Ha, little did I know... lol. And so I started learning literally 32 days ago. It’s a win win situation, they get the website and I get to learn.
I discovered this channel a few days ago, I learned more about mobile responsive design than anywhere else and feel more confident using CSS. Kevin, you're a real one
Just wanted to thank you for your videos. I have largely avoided getting good with CSS over the last 7 years and default to writing custom javascript for everything, but your practical examples have me writing a lot more CSS over the last few months.
The ironic thing, as newb, I've used pixels for most everything because? I haven't the slightest idea of the definition and proper usage of the units you mentioned... Which of course, calls out the immediate need for me to, learn them, and use them accordingly. Thanks for this Kevin. I'm enjoying your content very much.
For basic HTML games, I define a custom variable in the root relative to the viewport width/height (e.g. min(4vw, 3vh)) and calc everything else relative to that
Awesome video, customer oriented, straight forward, assertive and accurate! Lots of bad answers out there I think it is because either 1) they don't really understand how units work. 2) They dont know how to convey a complex topic into simple words. 3) They dont understand that the point is to "answer" a question not convey your own belief about the subject.
After deploying some sites on html and css i started watching your tutorials and i´m totally impressed, you really helped me a lot improving my css styling an writing. Thanks!
Man, after your videos I started to use REMs. And it's marvelous. Because you can change only one font-size for body in media-query. And that's all. It works like variables even in IE. Now I'm thinking in REMs everywhere. Our body default font size is 10px, so it's quite easy to calculate. But it's also easy to scale layouts for any screen size depends on media. Thank you a lot!
I am playing catch up with everything HTML, CSS, Javascript. Your video's are fantastic at helping me get to grips with all that has changed, keep up the awesome content!
Font size : use rem Width : coupled with max width, use ch unit(75 or less) Height : set min height Padding or margin : em(padding for buttons) or rem Medi queries : em
Thankyou! I’ve very recently arrived at coding a website for a group of people, having managed to avoid html, css and Java since Sir Tim B-L invented it! (Odd as I’ve been in this business for 40+ years) and now I’m here! Wow…. Thank you so much for your vids, they have been superb at explaining principles … keep up the grand work…
My rules of thumb are: » % or vw for box widths » % or vh for box heights (indeed, rarely) » rem or em for font sizes, leadings, and other type-related dimensions (e.g. image sizes sometimes) » em for paddings and margins » px for border widths (especially when aiming for that 1px crisp) and media queries (will take a look at the article you recommended, but in principle, it worked well for me so far) and widths and heights (even if I override them in CSS in other units) » ch for paragraph max-widths
So, today something clicked and I owe it all to you Mr Powell. I have been doing CSS/SCSS almost every day for a few years but I didn't grasp the concept of parent height affecting the height of children until I watched one of your videos (you do great btw, ty). I struggled with dealing with it for a long time and today I was tackling a typical challenge, one where a div dynamically pops up from the bottom and I had to size the content above so that it could handle a custom scrollbar etc. Anyway, due to your videos, I walked it through and it worked the first time! Often I'd struggled over this similar scenario with other elements and had to guess, refresh, and just sort of luck my way into it. Now I get it! TY TY TY!!
Great video! It definitely gets confusing sometimes, especially if you’re hours into a project, getting tired and start making mistakes. I’m still a designer at heart, even though I’ve been writing code for decades, it’s not often enough to keep track of everything... and then throw math into the mix after a long day, d’oh!
i thought you had like a million plus followers. you are my go to guy if i don't understand something in css. let's try and bring you to at least half a mil. i'm sharing for sure all the time ! you go man!
I'm trying to learn more about css "little tiny details" for many years. I know your videos will be helpful to learn the subtle details hidden in this languages. Thanks very much for your efforts to disseminate these important techniques. PD I am a retired professor from Panama.
I love this man and his videos. You see immediately how experienced he is and still humble and willing to help. And the advices are always top, they greatly improved the way I use css.
Our designers want things to look consistent across sizes, fully responsive, and they also make very complex designs. This means the headings, boxes, margins, padding all needs to adjust to screen size. I find myself using Calc with VW quite often. I don't know of that's the best way, but it has been working for me. I do use REM for font size whenever I can though. Thanks!!
This was the video I was looking for. I know how the units work, but where to use them busted my brain. For the most part I was using vh and vw to much. Also, I was using em for my font sizes, and the parents all the way up were using em as well. Also the whole concept presented here will stick. Thank you Kevin. Big fan. Update: I read the article regarding the media queries and I'm curios if it's still relevant today. It definitely was written a long time ago. I'm using Webflow and was surprised to see them using px for media queries.
Thanks a lot, Kevin, your videos are awesome and very complete. This used to be super boring to me, and your content got me interested in actually learning SCSS.

In addition to awesome content you put out constantly, I also have to admire that your videos are CRISP! Love that not only your content is hiqh quality but your video quality too.
When ı wasn't know the difference between relative and absolute units ı used to the absolute units and because of that struggled with media queries. Thanks to Allah ı learned them and now my layouts even more responsive and ı don't use media queries too much.
You can also make a function in scss to calculate the pixels to rem. I always use that and call the function px-to-rem() if you take this in use make sure you don't have to put a value with px at the end to make it faster to write it.
Kevin, I'm a dumbass, it's hard for me to pick up the simplest concepts, but idk how you do it. You just make my brain work with ur explanations. Currently following a Udemy course and alot of the properties etc are poorly explained, so I come here
I am forever grateful for having such people like you,every time I am stuck with css I know you will be the solution to my problem may the Lord increase you more and more
Due to writing a lot of wordpress stuff, I've avoided using the 62.5% font-size trick since that breaks certain styles in the admin. Instead I have a SASS function called rem(), which just takes whatever pixel value I want to have, and devides by 16 to convert to rems. Definitely a few more characters to type (painfully so), but I've honestly gotten used to it and outside of the awkwardness using them in things like long padding declarations, it's been pretty nice. Untill the designer uses inspector to figure out size adjustments and gives me values in REMs that I have to convert back to pixel values. Then it's hell.
I tend to use "em" for button padding, When text of my buttons are of different sizes, because if you are using fluid typography "em" will resize based on font size, much better alternative, since i use svg icons for my buttons.
I think you missed out on CSS Grid and using fractions or fr. Which I think should be very relevant at this time. People really need to start embracing CSS Grid as it makes your layout so much cleaner and allows you to keep your HTML semanticly correct. Appreciated the comment about ch. I hadn't used that so much and it really makes sense for column sizes.
That's really helpful. I occasionally need to design things for print, and sometimes for label printers, so need to be able to control exact size on the page. I generally use cm or mm with media queries for these.
@@KevinPowell Absolutely. I think in most cases fixed units are to be avoid. There are just occasions when something needs go to a printer, and needs to fit precise measurements. Mostly this will be for admin pages that end users will never see.
For accessibility reasons, it's really important not to set the html font size with a pixel value. Assume the default is 16, and use a percentage. You can still scale that number up and down within breakpoints :)
Same here I don't use pixels as much anymore. For when I do use them, it's usually some margin left or right that needed 4px or something. The only big use I have for pixels is sometimes I will use them for min-widths where appropriate.
Great video! As a product designer who has just started writing my own html/css, I find your videos really useful! It would be great for beginners if you could expand on the issues with examples, such as what issues using the viewport width would cause. ✌️
Ah well, I just did a small self-paced course on HTML and CSS. I can do some stuff but the more I watch your videos the more I know that I don't know crap.
When setting the value of REM units, do you round or do you use full 3 or 4 decimal places? I mean for 21px on the front end, do you set 1.3125 rem, 1.313 rem, 1.31 rem, or 1.3 rem?
which book is that on your desk? can can you suggest some books for css beginners, because i'm confused in excution flow of a css with html and so on, i mean if i write "font-size:2rem; and padding:2em;" ,n matter wheather you write it inside inline css or in , or above or below to each other (padding and margin) ,2em always mutliply by 2rem, so does it ?css dont have any proper execution flow of code?
I know this is a few months old but I have a question from my own experience. I have a component with "display: grid", the grid has 2 columns. Each column has data tables (not made in a traditional HTML-table way but using CSS grid as well) and I have a problem with the text inside of them. I have a font size defined in this case. - If I use rem units and I resize the browser, the table shrinks correctly but the text overflows, doesn't change its size. - I've tried using the clamp function with vw units. Using vw units while having the window at full-size the text shows correctly and it's readable but if I resize the window the text, although now it adjusts correctly, goes too small so for mobile screens (or tablet-size screens), everything becomes barely readable. I have a request that the screen shouldn't show scrolls, so I cannot use "display: block" to rearrange the columns in case the screen becomes too small, which is a big problem to solve IMO. What should I use in this case for the font size? One thing to note, I've tried avoiding using media queries, I don't want to do complex calculations and therefore adding too much CSS code in my stylesheet that later on will be harder to maintain.

If you would be a rapper, your name would be EmiRem
Em: will the real slim unit, please stand up!
That's really helpful.
I occasionally need to design things for print, and sometimes for label printers, so need to be able to control exact size on the page. I generally use cm or mm with media queries for these.
I come from a print background, and the idea of using fixed units like that in CSS scares me so much, lol. But it does the job!
@@KevinPowell Absolutely. I think in most cases fixed units are to be avoid. There are just occasions when something needs go to a printer, and needs to fit precise measurements. Mostly this will be for admin pages that end users will never see.
I like the idea of px for html font size (can change with breakpoints), rem for components, and em for elements within those components.
For accessibility reasons, it's really important not to set the html font size with a pixel value. Assume the default is 16, and use a percentage. You can still scale that number up and down within breakpoints :)
4:02 instead of vh one should use svh (or dvh if height should be dynamic)
Very helpful Kevin thank you so much!!

This topic interested so much I liked before watching, I hope the algorithm gods noticed
Great video. Actionable and to the point
Trust me when I say Kevin is really underrated
When setting the value of REM units, do you round or do you use full 3 or 4 decimal places? I mean for 21px on the front end, do you set 1.3125 rem, 1.313 rem, 1.31 rem, or 1.3 rem?
4:30 where is here property padding in .btn selector?
Thanks man! Great video
The only place I use px still is border-radius and *occasionally* some min-width or min-height values.
Video is gold, thanks so much!
1:27 Can I use also "html {font-size: 10px}" ? Where is the difference?
which book is that on your desk? can can you suggest some books for css beginners, because i'm confused in excution flow of a css with html and so on, i mean if i write "font-size:2rem; and padding:2em;" ,n matter wheather you write it inside inline css or in , or above or below to each other (padding and margin) ,2em always mutliply by 2rem, so does it ?css dont have any proper execution flow of code?
Hi Kelvin, have been going through your channel and you are simply amazing
Thank you so much 😀
I know this is a few months old but I have a question from my own experience.
I have a component with "display: grid", the grid has 2 columns. Each column has data tables (not made in a traditional HTML-table way but using CSS grid as well) and I have a problem with the text inside of them. I have a font size defined in this case.
- If I use rem units and I resize the browser, the table shrinks correctly but the text overflows, doesn't change its size.
- I've tried using the clamp function with vw units. Using vw units while having the window at full-size the text shows correctly and it's readable but if I resize the window the text, although now it adjusts correctly, goes too small so for mobile screens (or tablet-size screens), everything becomes barely readable. I have a request that the screen shouldn't show scrolls, so I cannot use "display: block" to rearrange the columns in case the screen becomes too small, which is a big problem to solve IMO.
What should I use in this case for the font size? One thing to note, I've tried avoiding using media queries, I don't want to do complex calculations and therefore adding too much CSS code in my stylesheet that later on will be harder to maintain.
Another great video topic! Thanks!
