    That's how I do it! Tweak in Chrome Dev Tool until I'm satisfied, then write it down in the CSS file :D

    @Jilano let me tell you a secret, that's how everyone does it. Open a random website and inspect it

    Actually, that's the yolo approach. In a more safe scenario you would have specific measures and design guidelines to know which sizes to use and where.

    @sigint z-index is usually the cause in 99% of the projects I do. 😂 I can't recall any other property that has given me so much trouble. Maybe text-indent? Hahaha
