The 'has' pseudo-class allows CSS to select a parent element based on the state of its child elements, enabling more efficient styling without relying on JavaScript for certain interactions.

JavaScript developers moved away from CSS due to the shift towards component-based development, which posed challenges with CSS's cascade and selector rules when components were relocated within the DOM.

CSS became popular because it allowed the separation of structure and presentation, supported cascading style sheets, and offered powerful selectors for styling the entire DOM efficiently.

Container queries allow developers to apply CSS rules based on the size of a component's container rather than the viewport, enabling more responsive and adaptable component designs.
