In this course, you will learn advanced and modern CSS using zombies, silliness, and a sense of humor. If you’re looking for a course that’s accessible to those without technical training or inclination and/or don’t mind laughing a bit while learning, this course is for you.

You will start by learning some basic concepts of inline and block direction along with how they are used to style direction-agnostic layouts. Then, you will move towards learning CSS columns, followed by flexbox and finally grid. You will face a challenge at the end of each chapter that will test your learning.

Modern CSS Layout: Decking Zombies with Style

In the [Zombie Width and Height](https://www.educative.io/pageeditor/10370001/5934169064996864/5340598377119744) lesson, we learned the size property of inline and block layouts. In this lesson, let's have a look at padding and margin properties. 
# Padding direction agnostic zombies
- `padding-inline-start`: The size of the padding at the start of the inline
direction

  (This is the writing-direction-agnostic version of padding-left.)
- `padding-inline-end`: The size of the padding at the end of the inline
direction

  (This is the writing-direction-agnostic version of padding-right.)
- `padding-block-start`: The size of the padding at the start of the block
direction

  (This is the writing-direction-agnostic version of padding-top.)
- `padding-block-end`: The size of the padding at the end of the block direction

  (This is the writing-direction-agnostic version of padding-bottom.)

```CSS
.padding-direction-agnostic-zombies {
    padding-inline-start: 1em;
    padding-inline-end: 1em;
    padding-block-start: 0.5em;
    padding-block-end: 0.5em;
}
```
