<!--
Margins are used to create space around elements, outside of any defined borders.
CSS has properties for specifying margin for each side of an element:
- margin-top : specifies margin for top-side of an element.
- margin-right : specifies margin for right-side of an element.
- margin-bottom : specifies margin for bottom-side of an element.
- margin-left : specifies margin for left-side of an element.
margin : is a shorthand property for following individual margin properties:
Example - margin: 30px 40px 55px 90px;
