CSS border properties are used to specify the style, width, and color of an element's border. Here are some commonly used border properties in CSS:

  • border-style: Specifies the style of the border (e.g. solid, dashed, double, etc.)
  • border-width: Specifies the width of the border (e.g. thin, medium, thick, or a specific width in pixels)
  • border-color: Specifies the color of the border (e.g. a specific color name, hexadecimal value, or RGB value)
  • border-radius: Specifies the roundedness of the border corners (e.g. a specific radius value in pixels)

Here's an example of how to use these border properties in CSS:

css
Copy code
/* Set the border style, width, and color */ .border-example { border-style: solid; border-width: 2px; border-color: red; } /* Set a rounded border */ .rounded-border { border-radius: 10px; }

You can find more information and examples on CSS border properties in the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) documentation.

👩‍💻 Technical question

can you change the <hr> line to a shorter line

🤖 SheCodes Athena says:

Yes, you can change the length of the <hr> line using CSS.

You can set the length of the line either by setting its width, height, border-width or margin/padding. Here's an example of setting the width of the <hr> line:

css
Copy code
hr { width: 50%; /* or any other width you want */ }

This code will set the width of the <hr> line to be 50% of the container's width. You can adjust the percentage to make it shorter or longer.

Alternatively, you can set the border-width property to a smaller value to shorten the line:

css
Copy code
hr { border-top-width: 1px; /* or any other width you want */ }

This code will set the width of the border on top of the line to 1 pixel, making the line shorter. You can adjust the value to make it thinner or thicker.

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.

SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🤯

SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?

Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!

SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.

For questions that are not coding-related, write us here 😃

You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.

Here are some examples:

- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?

- How do I make bullet points with different colors using the list element?

- My code in Codesandbox is having some issues. Can you please tell me what the issue is? [Include the link to your Codesandbox]

For now, SheCodes Athena is limited to 5 questions per day for each student.

In that case, you can either ask SheCodes Athena a follow-up question, or you can post on the designated weekly channel on Slack!

Our technical assistants are still available on Slack and are always happy to help! 😍💪

Remember, questions are limited to 1000 characters.

- If you're working with an HTML file: Post a snippet of your code related to the issue you're having (just copy the code and paste it into the question box).

- If you're working with Codesandbox: Good news, you can just post the link to your Codesandbox and the AI Assistant will be able to view your code.

- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! 😃

Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.

Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍

Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.

So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. 👩‍💻🤝💻
