GeoJSON Styling information

For GeoJSON - CSS styles are used to modify your points, line, polygons with thickness & color

{ 
    "type": "Feature",
    "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [[
        [-180.0, 10.0], [20.0, 90.0], [180.0, -5.0], [-30.0, -90.0]
        ]]
    },
    "style": {
        "__comment": "all SVG styles allowed",
        "fill":"red",
        "stroke-width":"3",
        "fill-opacity":0.6
    },
    "className": {
        "baseVal":"A class name"
    }
}

These days there is Mapbox's SimpleStyle.

        // OPTIONAL: default 1.0

        // the color of the interior of a polygon
        //
        // value must follow COLOR RULES
        "fill": "#555555",

        // OPTIONAL: default 0.6
        // the opacity of the interior of a polygon. implementations
        // may choose to set this to 0 for line features.
        //
        // value must be a floating point number greater than or equal to
        // zero and less or equal to than one
        "fill-opacity": 0.5
    }

GeoJSON doesn't deal with this. Any style information is going to depend on what the renderer is, Geojson CSS seams to target SVG but you also have Carto which targets mapnik, do remember that you can add extra fields to GeoJSON and it will still validate so none of these are invalid GeoJSON.
