Clean Up Your Code by Replacing Inline Styles with CSS Classes

CSS Analyzer

What is this warning?

Your page has a lot of styling applied directly to individual HTML elements using the `style="..."` attribute. This makes your code cluttered and hard to update. Imagine having to change the color of 100 different text elements one by one! Using CSS classes is a much cleaner and more efficient way to manage your styles.

How to Fix This Issue

How to Fix It

The Problem

<p style="color: blue; font-size: 16px;">Hello World.</p>
<div style="color: blue; font-size: 16px;">Another element.</div>

The Solution

Create a reusable class in your stylesheet and apply it to the elements.

/* In your CSS file */
.highlight-text {
  color: blue;
  font-size: 16px;
}

/* In your HTML file */
<p class="highlight-text">Hello World.</p>
<div class="highlight-text">Another element.</div>

Why This Works

Using classes centralizes your styling, making it easier to maintain and update. It also reduces the size of your HTML files, which can contribute to faster page loads.
