Buttons
Buttons are interactive elements that allow users to perform actions on your website or application. Buttons are commonly either rectangular or circular in shape and have a text label that says what will happen when you click on them.
To create a CSS button, you will need to use the <button> element in HTML. You can then use CSS to style the button.
A basic HTML structure with button looks as in the following code:
<html><head></head><body> <button class="style-button">Click Me</button></body></html>
Add styles using CSS to your button:
.style-button { background-color: pink; border: none; border-radius: 10px; padding: 15px; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; cursor: pointer;}
