Modern Web Styles and Layouts | Generated by AI
Overview
This appears to be CSS code written in SCSS (Sass) syntax, featuring nesting, ampersand (&) selectors for pseudoclasses, and @extend directives. It defines styles for a basic web page layout, forms, buttons, and utilities, with a clean, modern aesthetic (e.g., rounded corners, soft shadows, hover transitions). Properties without units (like font-size 16px
) are shorthand for SCSS. I’ll break it down by section, explaining selectors and their effects.
Global Styles (html, body)
html, body
font-family Verdana
font-size 16px
height 100%
background-color #D2D2D2
- Applies a simple font stack (Verdana fallback if needed) at 16px size.
- Sets full height (100%) for a full-page layout, often for centering or covering the viewport.
- Background is a light gray (#D2D2D2) for a neutral base color.
List and Link Styles (ul, a)
ul
list-style-type none
padding 0
margin 0
a
color #000
cursor pointer
text-decoration none
- Removes default bullets, padding, and margins from unordered lists for cleaner custom styling.
- Links are black (#000), have a pointer cursor on hover, and no underlines, making them feel like buttons.
Color and Text Utility (.a-blue)
.a-blue
color #00BDEF
- A class for blue text (#00BDEF, a light blue), likely for accents.
Button Styles (.btn, .btn-blue, .btn-gray, .btn-gray-2)

border-radius 3px
padding 10px

.btn
is a base class for 3px rounded corners and 10px padding..btn-blue
: Blue button (#00BDEF bg, white text) with inset highlights and drop shadows for depth. Hover darkens the blue with a smooth 0.5s transition..btn-gray
and.btn-gray-2
: Gray buttons (light bg #eee, dark text #333, subtle border #d5d5d5) with similar shadows..btn-gray-2
lacks explicit box-shadow but has the same hover effect (lightens to #ddd). Useful for secondary actions.
Positioning Utilities (.absolute-center, .full-space)
.absolute-center
margin auto
position absolute
top 0
left 0
bottom 0
right 0
.full-space

left 0
bottom 0
right 0
.absolute-center
: Centers an element absolutely in its parent (top/bottom/left/right at 0, with auto margins)..full-space

Form Styles (.base-form, input/textarea/select, button)
.base-form
@extend .absolute-center
max-width 350px
height 400px
background #fff

border-style none
outline none
.base-form
: Extends.absolute-center
to center a modal-like form (350px max width, 400px height, white bg, 20px border radius, centered text, inner padding). Ideal for login/signup forms.- Inputs, textareas, selects: Borderless with box-sizing to include padding in width; no focus outline, but adds a subtle gray shadow on focus for UX.
- Buttons: Removes default borders and outlines, assuming
.btn
styles for nicer appearance.
This code sets up a responsive, centered form page with styled buttons and inputs. If using SCSS, compile to standard CSS. For customization, adjust colors or sizes as needed.
