Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Put this meta tag in the <head> of your HTML files to overcome the device's zooming."

A block of code is set as follows:

/*NAVIGATION*/
nav li {
  display: block;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 800px) {
  nav li {
    display: inline-block
  }
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

/*NAVIGATION*/
nav li {
  display: block;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 800px) {
  nav li {
    display: inline-block
  }
}

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "The View Pattern button takes you to the patterns page where you can view it alone outside of the landing page."
