CSS Bootcamp: Master CSS (Including CSS Grid/Flexbox) - Measurement Units - Part 1

The lecture covers CSS measurement units, focusing on absolute and relative units. Absolute units like pixels and inches are fixed, while relative units like EMs and RAMs scale with parent or root elements. Practical examples in VSCode demonstrate how these units affect font size. EM units depend on parent element sizes, while RAM units rely on the root HTML element. The lecture concludes with a recommendation to use EM and RAM units for better scalability across different devices.
