Enhancing Designs with Backgrounds, Gradients, and Shadows

As we've seen in the previous lessons, colors and backgrounds are essential elements of web design that enhance visual appeal and user engagement. CSS provides powerful properties to control background colors, images, gradients, and patterns, allowing us to create dynamic and attractive web pages.

The background-color property sets the background color of an element. We can specify colors using names, HEX codes, RGB, RGBA, HSL, or HSLA values.
