What is Element Selectors?
Element selectors in CSS target HTML elements directly by their tag name. They allow you to apply styles to all occurrences of a specific element, such as all <p> (paragraph) or <h1> (heading) tags on a webpage. This is the most basic type of selector and provides a straightforward way to style common HTML elements.
