How I differentiate between padding and margin
Many times I used to get confused between padding and margin. This is how I now think about these two to have a clear distinction between them. Padding Padding is something I add to protect the content. Like foam packaging around a delicate item. It comes inside border. If we have a background color padding area gets background color too. Margin Margin is something I add to provide a distance between one box to other Like fencing around a house. It keeps two boxes from touching each other. If we add background to the margin doesn't get it Here is the link to jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/sampath5698/574fy36L/6/
