๐ What Are CSS Units?
CSS units define the size of elements — including their width, height, padding, margin, font size, and more. CSS offers both absolute units (like px, pt, cm) and relative units (like %, em, rem, vw, vh, vmin, vmax).
Absolute units remain the same regardless of screen size, while relative units adjust based on context — making them better for responsive web design.

๐ Why You Should Learn Responsive CSS Units:
With more devices and screen sizes than ever before, responsive design is essential. Learning how to use vw, vh, em, rem, and even vmin/vmax allows you to:
๐น Build mobile-first websites
๐น Avoid horizontal scroll bars
๐น Create flexible layouts
