5a9d72ad424fe3d0e10cad16	Use a media query to change a variable	0	false	https://scrimba.com/c/cWmL8UP	301091

Description

CSS Variables can simplify the way you use media queries. For instance, when your screen is smaller or larger than your media query break point, you can change the value of a variable, and it will apply its style wherever it is used.

Instructions

In the :root selector of the media query, change it so --penguin-size is redefined and given a value of 200px. Also, redefine --penguin-skin and give it a value of black. Then resize the preview to see this change in action.

Tests

tests:
  - text: <code>:root</code> should reassign the <code>--penguin-size</code> variable to <code>200px</code>.
    testString: assert(code.match(/media\s*?\(\s*?max-width\s*?:\s*?350px\s*?\)\s*?{[\s\S]*:root\s*?{[\s\S]*--penguin-size\s*?:\s*?200px\s*?;[\s\S]*}[\s\S]*}/gi));
  - text: <code>:root</code> should reassign the <code>--penguin-skin</code> variable to <code>black</code>.
    testString: assert(code.match(/media\s*?\(\s*?max-width\s*?:\s*?350px\s*?\)\s*?{[\s\S]*:root\s*?{[\s\S]*--penguin-skin\s*?:\s*?black\s*?;[\s\S]*}[\s\S]*}/gi));
