Question
Can I use responsive units like em
and rem
for margin
and padding
?
Answer
We can use responsive units including em
and rem
for margin
, padding
, and other boundary and space properties like width
.
We can use rem
units for margin
and padding
when we want the margin
and padding
for an element to scale with the root font-size
(the font-size
set for the root, or <html>
, element).
We can use em
units for margin
and padding
when we want the margin
and padding
of an element to scale with the font-size
of that particular element.
