Welcome to Day 5 of learning CSS. You can find Day-4 here.

As i have told earlier, this series is inspired by this awesome youtube series in freecodecamp channel.

We will start with CSS only Modal Window on day-5. Open your code editor and create a new 5.1-ModalWindow folder and two files index.html and sandbox.css inside it.

Next, in index.html put the basic html.

Next, we will create a CSS only Pacman. Open your code editor and create a new 5.2-Pacman folder and two files index.html and sandbox.css inside it.

Next, in index.html put the basic html.
