CSS Comments

CSS Comments. Comments are essential for documenting code, providing clarity during development and maintenance. They begin with `/*` and end with `*/`, allowing for multiline or inline annotations. Browsers ignore comments, ensuring they don’t affect the rendering of web pages.

Syntax:

/* content */

Comments can be single-line or multi-line. The /* */ comment syntax can be used for both single and multiline comments. We may use <!– –> syntax for hiding in CSS for older browsers, but this is no longer recommended for use.

Adding comments to the code is a good practice that can help to understand the code if someone reads the code or if it is reviewed later.

Note: The outputs are the same because comments are ignored by the browser and are not interpreted.
