Challenge: Learn Basic CSS by Building a Cafe Menu - Step 55

Link to the challenge:

‘.menu’ is a selector,
‘padding’ is a property,
‘20px’ is the value of the property:

.menu {
  width: 80%;
  background-color: burlywood;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  padding-property: 20px; -------"padding" is the property!
}```

But If you think about different padding properties in sense of the side to wich you want to apply 'padding', there are four in this step:
padding-left: value;
padding-right: value;
padding-top: value;
padding-bottom: value;

Whilst you can apply padding individually to top, bottom etc (e.g. padding-top: 10px), it’s useful also to understand the shorthand:

// applies padding clockwise from top (top, right, bottom, left)
padding: 0 1px 2px 3px;

// applies padding 0 to top and bottom and 10px to right and left
padding: 0 10px;

// applies 10px to all
padding: 10px;
