so I have this CSS file and it has this
.post > a {
position: absolute;
color: #fff;
font-size: 22px;
cursor: pointer;
}
and I'm not sure what does the a means exactly?

1It's just the `` tag. i.e. a link. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a – ceejayoz Jun 21 '21 at 20:21

Just look in prefix: `.` - class, `#` - id, no-prefix - simple tag name – Justinas Jun 21 '21 at 20:23

Selects all <a> elements where the parent is an element with a class post.

1I upvoted this, but just one minor thing: the link to the documentation for the `` tag is not really relevant on its own (since the question is really about what the "> a" means), so if I may suggest an edit - I think the answer would be improved if you added this link as well: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Child_combinator – Filip Milovanović Jun 21 '21 at 20:30
