  Can someone please tell me what the # is for in this style.css code?

  #footer {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  font-size: 13px;
  color: #fff;
  }

  Depends on what # you’re referring to.

  1. #footer: This is referring to an ID named ‘footer’. IDs are assigned to specific HTML elements like

  to style them.

  2. color: #fff: This is a hex code for white color. Different colors correspond to different hexadecimal values.
