💭 Fun Fact

***The “em” Unit’s Typographic Roots*** – The em unit in CSS has its origins in typography, where it was traditionally used to measure the width of the letter “M” in typesetting. This unit has evolved in web design to represent the size of the font in a given context, making it a relative unit that adjusts based on the font size of its parent element.
