CSS inheritance: inherit, initial, unset, and revert

Inheritance in CSS, akin to inheritance in other domains like object-oriented programming (OOP) and biology, allows child elements to automatically inherit certain properties from their parent elements unless otherwise specified. This concept is crucial for efficient CSS management, reducing redundancy by cascading styles, such as color and font properties, from parent to child elements. While not all CSS properties are inherently inheritable, the use of the 'inherit' keyword can force inheritance of both inheritable and non-inheritable properties, allowing a child to take the parent's property value. Additionally, keywords like 'initial', 'unset', and 'revert' are employed to manipulate the default and inherited values of CSS properties, enabling developers to control and reset styles to either their initial, inherited, or user-agent stylesheet values. The tutorial explores these concepts through examples, illustrating how inheritance works in practice and how specific CSS properties behave within this framework.
