**:first-child**

The `:checked` selector matches every checked \<input> element (only for radio buttons and checkboxes) and \<option> element.

The `:root` selector matches the document's root element. In HTML, the root element is always the html element.

1. [Type selectors](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Type_selectors) (e.g., `h1`) and pseudo-elements (e.g., `::before`).
2. [Class selectors](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Class_selectors) (e.g., `.example`), attributes selectors (e.g., `[type="radio"]`) and pseudo-classes (e.g., `:hover`).
3. [ID selectors](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/ID_selectors) (e.g., `#example`).

* 继承不如指定
* !important > 内联 > ID > Class|属性|伪类 Pseudo-classes | Pseudo-elements> 元素选择器
* :link、:visited、:hover、:active按照LVHA（LoVe HAte）顺序定义

## Specificity Rules

* Equal specificity: the latest rule counts
* ID selectors have a higher specificity than attribute selectors
* Contextual selectors are more specific than a single element selector
* A class selector beats any number of element selectors
* The universal selector and inherited values have a specificity of 0

inline style > ID selector > class, attribute and pseudo-class selector > tag and pseudo-element selector
