The Complete Beginner’s Guide to CSS

# The `display` property

The `display` property is perhaps one of the most fundamental properties in CSS.

A good way to think about it is to imagine treating each HTML element as a box. The `display` property determines how these boxes will be displayed.

Many values can be used with this property. However, only some of them are commonly used. We’ll focus on the following values:

- `inline-block`
- `block`
- `flexbox`
- `grid`
- `none`
- `table`
