Summary

The css() method is used to read or set the direct style property on selected elements. When given one property name, css() returns its value; when given two arguments, css() sets a new style. You can also send objects containing multiple properties at once to make them more efficient.

Key points

Returns the value of the property of the style
Css(prop, value) sets one property of the style
Css({prop: value, ...}) sets many properties at once
The numerical value for a particular property can be written without a unit
