The first letter pseudo element was used to make the first letter of this sentence different.
In this example, I used the first line pseudo element to make the first line of text different. I need a lot of text so I can have a few lines, so here is a quote from Steve Jobs to take up space "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."
If you highlight this text, it will look different than other highlighted text on this page.
An example when you might use the selector pseudo element is if you want highlighted text to mastch the color scheme of the page. You could use the first line if you wanted to style the first letter differently, for emaple if you wanted to have a drop cap.
