In this video I will be explaining the most important concept of CSS. The box model. Everything in CSS is made of boxes so it is crucial to understand how the CSS box model works. In this video I will use examples to explain and show how the box model works on CSS elements, and by the end of this video you will have a complete understanding of the CSS box model.

The Odin Project is officially pumping some viewership to you.
I came from The Odin Project too!!! lol

Just came after searching for box model on youtube. Found what I was looking for to clear out all confusions. Exactly what I needed. I was having trouble formatting content with float and clear based on box model. This was super helpful! 👏🏼
Lol, What are you doing here?
Good luck to everyone on their Odin Project Coding Journey, consistency is key! doesn't matter when you started or how difficult it is, stick to it long enough and you shall succeed.
yessir
@@marshallbrannan8672 don't mention, I'm almost done with the introduction course. I'm also in uni rn doing a CS degree, so it's taking me longer to complete TOP, but I'm determined to finish anything I start.
@@marshallbrannan8672 I'm 50% of the way through as well. Good luck to you all!
@@marshallbrannan8672 same here lol. It's so nice to meet people like me. I wish we could connect. Goodluck on your journey.
@@marshallbrannan8672 I'm going with the javascript pass since it offers more opportunities in the field but maybe I'm just being biased. At the end of the day, these are all just tools to make ends meet so just pick whichever suits u the best and make sure you become the most proficient and creative person in it.
It's great to see people with a similar mindset here, wish you all success.
The part at 6:29 might be confusing for some people, so I explained it here:
User here tells you that the total size of the element is 180x180, despite him specifying the height and width properties with value of 100px.
So, user here wants the total size of the element to be 100x100, not 180x180.
He tells you that there is a property called "box-sizing" with value "border-box".
"border-box" takes into account the height and width values you mentioned, which are 100px for height and 100px for width.
What "border-box" will do is make the total size of the element 100x100.
To do this, it will first look at the current border and padding numbers (margin is out of the question because we said margin is not taken into account in the total element size), and it will work out the total element size using these numbers.
User changes the border size to 20px, and padding still remains as 10px.
Let's work this out. Assume the initial total element size is 0px.
20px border up and 20px border down means that the total element size is now 40px.
Padding. 10px padding up and 10px padding down means that the total element size is now 40px + 10px + 10px = 60px.
FInally, "border-box" subtracts this 60px from the desired total element size, which is 100px. So 100px - 60px is 40px.
This 40px number we just calculated will be given to the element content size. So now, the total element size is 40px (the element content size) + 60px (the element padding and border sizes) which gives us a total element size of 100px.
This entire process repeats for left and right (the width), causing the total element area to be 100x100. Pretty cool, right? Rewatch this part if you're still confused while reading, and focus, and tell me if you got it!
ALSO I'M A THE ODIN PROJECT STUDENT!!!
me too from odin project
thank you so much Its help me a lot!!!
nice explanation! I actually get it now🤭
Did not know the margins collapse. Thank you.
It is something that I did not realize for a long time as well. It definitely confused me a few times.
But in CSS grid that is no longer the case anymore, then both margins are displayed.
@@komkwam This is the case for CSS flex as well
ya , this help me a lot
what would be the idea behind margins behaving like that, very confusing!!!
Pay attention to how he "comments out" an element at 6:35. ctrl + / has been a game changer for me. It allows me to select an element and toggle it on/off and see its effect.
how do i do this lol? doing ctrl + shift +7 doesnt work lmao
@@SmartSleeper if you're on Linux/Windows, it's Ctrl + K + Ctrl + C and for windows, Mac: Command + K + C.
For Mac it's ( Alt / )
This was super helpful, thanks noticing it and sharing!
This is one of the most important things to understand about web design, arguably the first thing everyone needs to learn, but a lot of us just go on without fully understanding it, myself included. Thank you for breaking it down and telling us what the Box Model is, what the different properties do, and what we need to know in order to style elements exactly how we want them to look. I'm gonna get to work on it and make notes in my HTML/CSS lab! 👍
You are so correct. Many people including myself skipped over the box model when learning since it is boring but it would have saved me so much time if I understood it properly.
This video is a equivalent to a holy scripture like Bible/bhagwat Geeta for people to understand how to design apps be it on Android/iOS/web.This was helpful for me as a flutter developer.
Gets tricky with the height and width being eaten up after box sizing, but you make it easier to understand! Thanks!
still consistent from odin project starting to realize how css is important to learn dont rush over
I'm a student of coding and programming and this box model stuff with the content, padding, border and margin has always confused me. Today I am no longer confused but rather empowered to conquer this. i just told my wife, where's this fella been all my life. lol Thank you sir! Hell, I even broke out the crayons to draw this stuff in my notebook! lol
Excellent explanation. This is by far the clearest I've found so far. Thanks!
Thanks! I am really glad you enjoyed it.
I've been watching tutorials where I would type in the CSS line by line hoping to finally understand what it means, but this video finally did it.
Margin Collapse surprised me, didn't know thanks :)
Thank you, this was so simple to understand. You're a great teacher

OMG for some reason I wasn't getting it during my class lectures. You cleared it up so well man, thank you! I really appreciate how easy you are to understand. Best wishes my man!
I'm really glad I was able to help. Good luck on your future learning!
Thanks man!I truly appreciate you taking your time to help people on youtube get the content we need.
Much Respect from KENYA 🇰🇪
This was the fastest 8mins I've spent on a coding video. Love the conciseness
*realizing I’ve spent a couple weeks trying to understand something you explained so clearly in 8 minutes*
Thank you!
Thank you for explaining the box model so well !! I'm going to use your channel as the first resource to understand new things in CSS . Keep it up
If the Odin Project considers your channel quality content, then you earned a sub. I've seen a lot of other TH-camrs and they're more about themselves and being mental health career gurus than programmers. Don't sell out.
Thank you for explaining man! thumbs up.
