Cascading Style Sheets  or simply CSS is a style sheet language used to describe the presentation (look of web pages) of a document written in a markup language. The most common application of CSS is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML, but the CSS language can be applied to any kind of XML document, including SVG and XUL.

CSS is used primarily to enable the separation of document content and structure from document presentation, including style elements such as the colors, fonts and layout. This separation of code can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification of presentation characteristics, enable multiple pages to share formatting, reduce the code to text ratio and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content (such as allowing table less web design). CSS can also allow the same markup page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser or screen reader) and on Braille-based and tactile devices. While the author of a document typically links that document to a CSS stylesheet, readers can use a different stylesheet, perhaps one on their own computer, to override the stylesheet the author has specified.
