/* Here is how it works */
padding: 10px; /* for all sides i.e. top, bottom, right, left */
padding: 10px 5px; /* top & bottom , right & left */
padding: 10px 5px 15px; /* top, right & left, bottom */
padding: 10px 5px 15px 20px; /* top, right, bottom, left */(clockwide-rotation)
/* Each side can be defined individually */
padding-top: 10px;
padding-right: 5px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
padding-left: 20px;
/* Apply to all four sides */
padding: 1em;
/* vertical | horizontal */
padding: 5% 10%;
/* top | horizontal | bottom */
padding: 1em 2em 2em;
/* top | right | bottom | left */
padding: 5px 1em 0 2em;
/* Global values */
padding: inherit;
padding: initial;
padding: revert;

padding from left 25px
.box {
padding: <padding-top> || <padding-right> || <padding-bottom> || <padding-left>
}
padding: 00px 00px 0px 0px; //top right bottom left
// mnemonic to remeber positions Te-Rri-B-Le (terrible)
padding: 1%; // scales proportionally - on ALL sides
padding: 5px 10px 15px; //top then left & right then bottom
An element's padding area is the space between its content and its border. Note: Padding creates extra space within an element. In contrast, margin creates extra space around an element.
