css vh and vw code example
Example 1: vh vs vw css
vh and vw measure the percentage of height and width of the viewport respectively.
vw and vh are a percentage of the window width and height,
respectively: 100vw is 100% of the width, 80vw is 80%, etc.
This seems like the exact same as the % unit, which is more common

CSS VH unit Property
Viewport Height ( vh )
– A percentage of the full viewport height. 10vh will resolve to 10% of the current viewport height. Viewport Minimum ( vmin )

}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello</h1>
<p>Resize the height of the browser window to see how the font-size of h1 changes.</p>
<p>1vh = 1% of viewport height.</p>
<p>The vh unit is not supported in IE8 and earlier.</p>
