Pseudo Classes and CSS Elements – Hi friends, meet us again. how are you today? We hope you are always in good health and condition. In this article, we will discuss something related to programming languages, especially the CSS programming language, namely pseudo classes and css pseudo elements.

- Hover – the application on hover is used to add style to an element when the cursor or mouse is over the element.
- Active – serves to add style to the active or currently active element.
- Visited – has a function to add style to links that have been visited before or clicked.

Pseudo Element is a selector that has a function to select elements and tags automatically. Writing pseudo elements in CSS1 and CSS 2 is to use a colon (:) which is the same as the pseudo class. However, in the CSS3 version, pseudo elements are written using 2 colons (::). This change is intended to make it easier to distinguish between pseudo elements and pseudo classes
The following is an example of the use of pseudo elements:
