How to select an element that has a certain class with CSS?

To select an element with a certain class using CSS, you can use the class selector, which is denoted by a dot (.) followed by the class name. Here’s how you can select an element with a specific class:

/* Selects all elements with the class 'example' */
.example {
  /* Your styles here */
}

.example selects all elements with the class example. You can replace example with the name of the class you want to target.

We can also combine class selectors with other selectors for more specific targeting. For example:

/* Selects all <div> elements with the class 'example' */
div.example {
  /* Your styles here */
}

/* Selects all elements with the class 'example' that are descendants of elements with the class 'container' */
.container .example {
  /* Your styles here */
}

These examples demonstrate how you can use CSS class selectors to target elements with specific classes and apply styles to them.
