Styling by Position

Sometimes it’s not possible to exactly annotate the markup that you want to style. It is possible to select a particular HTML element using positional selectors.

For example, styling the fourth element:

style.css
li:nth-child(4) {
  color: oklch(0.707 0.165 254.624);
}
  • this
  • list
  • has
  • six
  • elements
  • apparently!
