CSS Position Sandbox
Experiment with position values and offsets in a small preview box.
Learn CSS positioning by doing
static, relative, absolute, fixed, sticky — CSS positioning trips up beginners and experts alike because the behavior depends on context. This sandbox lets you change an element’s position and offsets in a small preview so you can watch how each value moves it.
Seeing the box respond to top, left, and the position value builds real intuition faster than reading definitions. Experiment until the behavior clicks, then copy the position and offset CSS you settled on.
Positioning, previewed
absolute is relative to the nearest positioned ancestor while fixed is relative to the viewport — the sandbox shows exactly what each does. Runs in your browser.
