They're so many dev channels on UA-cam. Your own is unique because it's straightforward, detailed, broken down, etc. I don't know how you do it but your explanation is clearer than the rest
I love how your videos feel like reading a book on the topic, or an article, but while also being able to see a live demonstration, without all the fluff other videos tend to have. It really helps me streamline the information. I cannot wait for your next video.
Your channel is a godsend. I had been reading articles and all but never truly understood where exactly to use the units. Your examples were eye opening. Thank you!
This is such a massive help! I like that you show real use cases where you would use which unit and the reason for it. I’ll definitely remember the 45ch-75ch rule of thumb. Keep these coming. Your production is top tier!
2:21 The screens are measured diagonally (i.e. 27'' diagonally, what changes sometimes is the aspect ratio), i.e. unless I'm not understanding what's going on, these examples are not proof, moreover the pixel size really changes, so computer screens and cell phone screens are usually more expensive than TV screens, for example, because the space is smaller and the manufacturing process, being more modern, is more expensive, to place the same amount of pixels in space dozens of times smaller
I have started my course on html and css. This is by far the best channel I have seen. The details you explain is helping make my base strong. Thank you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO, I never quite understood these types of units and stuck to the PX even though the people around me were using REM and EM.
Aaa i think imma binge watch all your videos i love the fact that you take the time to explain it and helps us understand. Thanks. From someone that is wanting to know coding but doesn't have time to take classes.
That font size accessibility thing fully convinced me to start using rem instead of px. I love that you use real world examples to teach. This way I'm actually learning the why, and not just the how. I'm so glad I found your channel
Dude, as someone who started webdeveloping 18 years ago (and been at it on and off), this channel is a treasure. Not following the space for longer periods of time had always made me feel like it's very hard to catch up with the latest developments. But it's videos like these (and your clear and concise explanations) that makes coming back to web development a LOT less daunting. Thanks so much!
I just started working as a front-dev recently and your css videos have taught me basics that I wouldn't have learned unless I were in school again :) Thanks and can't wait for your next videos~
You my friend, are an absolute gift to the world of web development. Thank you for this explanation and your videos in general. You make truly fantastic videos; I can't thank you enough for all the effort you put into them!!
Also, thank you for covering the specific USECASES for all of these Units! There are some other videos out there that covers these units. Some of them are even as concise as your video. But, the key thing they lack is that they don't explain when you would actually use these units! Adding that in makes this video just so much more useful to me. And in general, I REALLY like how in your video you explain the concepts -- but the you also provide examples or guidance on how you can effectively use those concepts. That's the big thing that sets these apart I think. Along with the great voice quality, animations, examples, etc :) Just 10/10 work my friend, I really appreciate it. You have a real gift for this stuff
I watched a looot of videos of basic concepts to undestand official docs, and your channel is by far the best explaining everything in a concise and practical way. Also love Berserk
Hi, thank you so much. The second part of the video about using the common CSS units was so straightforward!!! You're examples and the way you explained was really great.
Good video, I recently found out about your channel, and I'm really amazed of the quality and the content overall. Keep up the good work, you are my best web dev learning channel !
Yo !!!! That explanation is so fast for beginners like me. I'll have to watch it like 20 times to fulty interpret it. Anyway setting the height of my grid to 100vh did set the grid cover the enitre height & width of the page. Thanks again dude.
Fantastic video. Explains everything so clearly and with such simplicity that anyone can finally understand such a ubiquitously confusing concept. Bravo!
I ve just watched some videos of yours and I can safely say that you are the best CSS teacher on youtube, and I have watched quite a alot of CSS videos, most of them are just useless. You my friend are the real deal. Please don't ever stop with the CSS content.
man. you are the best when its come to explaining. i'm still waiting for your coverage in javascript :). you are now one of my teacher in front end programming.
What a smart, unique, original, enjoyable and refreshing approach for teaching. I wish you were my private teacher. I have too many questions, and too many topics that I like YOU to teach me :) Thank you for becoming a content provider. (...if it will ever develop into frontend/backend development that will be awesome)
Your videos should be paid but thankfully they aren't! That makes your channel 100x times better than what already is, keep doing this excellent content, cheers!
As always his videoes are gold to my stubborn ears, his words are a like a birds songs, truly this mans explantion is capable of bringing peace to this chaotic world.
Such a great channel with amazingly clear and detailed content! I was shocked seeing this unbelievably great content and having 20k subs only => which means keep it up and you will get what you deserve, a place in the list of the best learning channels on UA-cam!
I thought I was learning about the same thing I know but I stayed to watch the entire video and I got the bonus I didn't know about the ch This is very helpful ❤
Nice video. I did not know about the padding trick and the ch units. Thanks. ---------- Like you said the reference pixel is a reference for a standard that works for us, humans, visually. It's important to note that you can calculate the actual size on the screen, at least the majority of times. ---------- In your first example the screen is 1080p (1920x1080px) and is 27 inch (23.532 by 13.237 inches). Lets translates this to the superior unit of length and we get 59.771cm by 33.622 cm. Because you used a square we can pick either height or width lets pick height for this example: 33.622cm / 1080px = 0.03113148148148148cm/px -> this is the size of each pixel in cm 0.03113148148148148 x 96px = 2.98862cm -> this is the size of a square with 96px If you look at 2:10 you can see that the ruler is on the money 2.9cm. ---------- Cheers and keep it up really nice videos.
Keep creating such small videos about topics in no time your channel will be a go to channel for beginners. Also create content regarding Javascript and React once you are done with the CSS part . I learned Flex-box and Grid from your channel i was a complete doodoo but after I saw your videos it changed everything. Keep Growing 💗
Truly amazing, I would also like to add vmin and vmax to the list as they help me keep constant relative size to text across different screen resolutions and scalings

Great video. I forget the name of the book (it's got to be 15+ years old now) but it had an example that used the absolute size of "small" on the html element. The benefit being it still allowed the user to customize their font-size (as you demonstrated) but gave you a rem equivalent to 10px. It made the math easier for me for when, for example, someone asked for 32px font I could just use 3.2rem instead.
Yeah that’s a strange one. Length units like PX and EM on fonts can be absolute or relative, but it’s confusing to realize the similarly named units like small and smaller are actually different - font-size:small; is absolute while font-size:smaller is relative. 🤯
@@slayingthedragon Looks like my comment from last night got deleted so trying again. No, the absolute font size "small", as in: html { font-size: small; }. They're still current.

I like to use rem:
:root {
font-size: 62.5%
}
Its more easy to use, because 1rem = 10px, 16px = 1.6rem.
Truly amazing, I would also like to add vmin and vmax to the list as they help me keep constant relative size to text across different screen resolutions and scalings

The real size in inches is always: pixels/resolution [dpi] , therefore it is a function of the resolution of the device. When you change the resolution of the device, the real size changes based on the formula above.
(The almost empirical "expected viewing distance" may be the same for the same device/screen - but the size is clearly dependent on the resolution, which might change for the same device based on the graphics adapter settings, and therefore the definition that you present is not a strict one).
In fact, this is how the resolution is defined primarily.
Other than that - your presentation is almost perfect!
