Common ways to style your texts with HTML and CSS3

Align text

You can align text in a container by adding the text-align property to that container. The most popular values of this property are shown next.

text-align: justify; 
/* Causes all lines of text except the last line to meet the left and right edges of the line box */
text-align: center; 
/* Centers the text */
text-align: right; 
text-align: left;

Make text bold

.bold_text {
	font-weight: bold;
}

.underlined_text {
	text-decoration: underline;
}

text-transform: lowercase; 
/* Result: hello world */
text-transform: uppercase; 
/* Result: HELLO WORLD */
text-transform: capitalize; 
/* Result: Hello World */

/* The property uses the default value */
text-transform: inherit; 
/* The property uses the value assigned to the parent element */
text-transform: none; 
/* The original text will be displayed */

Adjust the thickness of a text

The font-weight property sets how thick or thin characters are in a container.

#title {
	font-weight: 20px;
}

Adjust the line spacing

The line-height property changes the amount of vertical space between the lines of a text in a container.
