Following various mentions of pseudo-classes within this forum I have started to look for guidance.
The Blocs Academy has a Vimeo on using a pseudo class for the first-line of text which works as expected.
But it does seem of limited use when I can Span any text, no matter the length or placement, and apply a class to the span to make changes to that text.
What are the differences and advantages of one over the other?
Secondly, outside of typography, I can see the usefulness of pseudo-classes. Can I take any of the classes listed on W3 and add them to a class in Blocs, as instructed in the Academy video? Or are we limited to the ones Norm has chosen, and if so where do I locate these?
And … Norm’s academy specifies :first-line, W3 says ::first-line. How much do those colons matter? Can first-line be a class as well as an element?
