4,571 PointsThere's many selectors thrown at me. How do you remember all of them?
I'm having trouble remember all of the selectors. Does it just take more time to remember all of these or will I have to use reference while coding?

If you can't remember the syntax of a particular selector, the best reference I know is the 30 CSS Selectors you Must Memorize.

Don't expect to remember them all straight away.
The more you use them the more you'll remember but it's perfectly fine to use references such as W3Schools if you need to.
Thanks

The more you use them, the more familiar you'll be with them. If you forget anything, just google it.
Good luck
