# ::first-letter and ::first-line

The ::first-letter and ::first-line are used to style the first part of the text content of a block-level element. Specifically, ::first-letter applies to the first letter of the first line, and the ::first-line applies to the first line itself. It is important to mention that the "first line" can vary depending on the font family and size as well as the size of the screen and block-level element.

p::first-letter {
  float: left;
  margin: 5px 10px 0 0;
  padding: 10px;
  
  background-color: skyblue;
  font-size: 3em;
  line-height: 1;
  
}

p::first-line {
  background-color: skyblue;
}
