"Hey there, and welcome to a brand-new module—React Styling!

So far, we’ve built interactive components with state, props, and hooks. But what about making them visually appealing? In this lesson, we’ll explore how to style React components using CSS.

By the end of this lesson, you’ll understand:

✅ How to write inline styles directly in JSX.

✅ How to add and use external CSS files in React components.

✅ Best practices for structuring CSS files in a React project.

Let’s get started!"

1. Topic Overview

Instructor:

"React doesn’t have a built-in way to style components, so we rely on standard CSS techniques.

Think of styling in React like dressing up an avatar in a game:

• 🎨 Inline styles → Like quickly changing one clothing item.
• 🏗 External CSS files → Like preparing an entire outfit for different situations.
• 📂 CSS organization → Ensuring your wardrobe is neat and accessible.

Each method has its own advantages and is useful in different scenarios."
