===============================================================================
 
This file controls the appearance of the Timeless skin.
 
The basic structure of CSS is:
 
    selector {
        property: value;
    }
 
For example:
 
    body {
        background: black;
    }
 
This means:
 
    selector  = body
    property  = background
    value    = black
 
The selector tells CSS WHAT to change.
The property tells CSS WHICH aspect to change.
The value tells CSS HOW to change it.

@import tells the browser to load another CSS file.

  COLOR VARIABLES

===============================================================================
 
These are CSS variables.
 
A variable lets a color be defined once and reused throughout the stylesheet.
 
For example:
 
    var(--background)
 
means:
 
    "use whatever color was assigned to --background"
 
This makes changing the entire theme much easier.

html and body are the two outermost elements of the page.
