Adding a Media Query

Media queries let you group CSS declaration blocks and specify the conditions under which they should be applied. Those conditions may be something like “if the screen is at least 640 pixels wide” or “if the screen is wider than it is tall and has a high pixel density.”

The syntax begins with @media, followed by the conditions to be matched. Next is a set of curly braces that wraps around entire declaration blocks. Let’s see what this looks like.

Begin your first media query at the end of styles.css. You will create a media query that will activate styles when being viewed on any kind of device when the viewport is at least 768 pixels wide, which is a common device width for tablets.
