CSS and Media Queries (which is also CSS), is not a programming language. CSS is a formatting standard for the styling of HTML documents. The actual processing part of HTML and CSS is done on the browser. How the CSS is interpreted and translated into code therefore, in a way, depends on the language in which the browser was coded in.

Yes, i know that but what i was asking how did they made CSS?

Like we can say that you can make programms in binary numbers, u can , but it will be extremey hard etc..

Like Swift, how did they made Swift? so how did they made CSS and all that ? : p So i was saying that maybe they did CSS with C++? or soemthing i dont know : p

Again, CSS is just a format. There was never any programming involved in it.

They "made" CSS by just having a meeting and deciding how they mark different things. Again, no programming language was used in its' creation.

Lol, how did people even camed up with technology and all whats today, seem magic lol i know, physics , electrons etc.. but its not easy, if we think about programming, its easy right? but who would invent it in the first place to do all that, i believe it took years to develop it and improve it like CSS is evolving now, but its just crazy xd

Thank you for the answer .
