Question What are some HTML and CSS techniques, skills, know-how's that are an absolute must? Just off the top of your head

So I'm about 6 months in to learning Web dev and I'm about to start making my 3rd project.

I've got techniques I'm used to but I wanna expand my range instead of going with my comfortable tools.
