    An id (#) can exist only once in a document. It is really useful to identify an element in CSS ans in JavaScript as well (should you ever need it).`

    A class (.) can be used as often as it is required.

    Example: you have only one header: <div id="header">Header</div>, but several articles: <div class="article">...</div>


    Say you have this HTML document:

    <div id="site">
        <h1>Some heading...</h1>
        <div class="article">
            <h1>Title</h1>
            <p>Some content...</p>
        </div>
        <div class="article">
            <h1>Title</h1>
            <p>Some content...</p>
        </div>
    </div>
    

    The heading of the articles shouldn’t be as big as the heading of the site, so we have to use a more specific selector: .article h1 {...}. This will style every <h1>element in a element of the class “article”.

    If we want to have an even more specific selector, we would use: div.article h1 {...}. This will only style every <h1> element in a <div> box with the class “article”
