Circle	visual

Creates a circle shape with pure CSS.

<div class="circle"></div>

.circle {
  border-radius: 50%;
  width: 2rem;
  height: 2rem;
  background: #333;
}

Explanation

• border-radius: 50% curves the borders of an element to create a circle.
• Since a circle has the same radius at any given point, the width and height must be the same. Differing values will create an ellipse.
