TIL CSS target everything but last element using Not

POSTED ON:

TAGS: css

Don't do this: 


.item {
  margin-right: 1.6rem;
}

.item:last-child {
  margin-right: 0;
}

Do this: 

/* Option 1 */

.item:not(:last-child) {
  margin-right: 1.6rem;
}

/* Option 2 */
.item:nth-child(n+2) {
  margin-left: 1.6rem;
}

/* Option 3 */
.item + .item {
  margin-left: 1.6rem;
}
