CSS

Frontend

How a page looks.

Describes presentation: colour, size, spacing, layout. Separate from structure on purpose: remove it and the page is ugly but still works and still makes sense.

Rendering

Frontend

Turning content into pixels.

The browser converting HTML, CSS and JavaScript into a visible page. Server-side rendering does the first pass on the server so content exists in the HTML immediately rather than after scripts run.
