What is IN?
Inches (in) are an absolute CSS unit representing physical inches, primarily used for print media. In web contexts, 1 inch equals 96 pixels based on the CSS specification. While rarely used for screen design, inches are essential for print stylesheets and ensuring accurate physical dimensions in printed documents.
What is VH?
Viewport Height (vh) is a relative CSS unit where 1vh equals 1% of the browser viewport's height. Like VW, it responds dynamically to viewport changes, making it perfect for full-height sections and responsive vertical spacing. VH units are commonly used for hero sections, modals, and mobile-first designs that need to adapt to various screen heights.
