Match only the first descendent in pure css?

Question

Is there an elegant way in pure css to match only the first descendent -- similar to jquery first()?

in jQuery:

$(\".outer .title\").first();
         


        

Answer 1

Look up CSS selectors - W3Schools CSS Selectors

This might be what you're looking for though:
.outer .thing:first-child {}

You could also try nth-child()
