    CSS or Cascading Style Sheets is language used to define looks of web page elements like fonts, layout, colors, etc. It makes defining web page look easier because designer don`t need to write description of web element each time. Instead of that he just "call" css function. For example if we define the look of links in css we dont need to describe the look of each and every link in html page it will be automatically done just by connecting html document with certain css document in which we had defined look of links. Hope this sounds understandable.

    What AntunTun said is accurate. To see a good example of CSS go to http://www.freecsstemplates.org/css-templates and download at least one template. In the file you will see the index page and the style.css page. Open the .css page to see the attributes that are assigned to the index page.

    In easy terms, It is a file that drives your website styling. It is used to style your html document
