Customize Your Style Sheet in the Force.com IDE

A Lightning component can specify its own cascading style sheet (CSS). The .css file is included when you create a component bundle in the Force.com IDE.
The contact list we created was okay, but it could use more pizazz. Let’s spice it up a bit.
  1. Make sure that the active file in the source panel is one of your MyContactList files (not a MyContactListApp file).
  2. Click the CSS tab at the bottom of the source panel.
  3. Replace the generated CSS with this CSS.
  4. To save your updated CSS, press Ctrl+S or (Cmd+S on macOS).
  5. Refresh the browser page that’s displaying the preview of your application. If you’ve closed that page, you can find it again at https://yourDomain.lightning.force.com/c/MyContactListApp.app.
Isn’t that better? Now that is what we call pizazz.
