Notation >* in css

Question

I've come across a class in CSS with the notation >*, as in:

.container>*{ ... }

Could someone please explain me what that means?

Answer 1

> is a selector that looks for elements that are children of the element on the left (which means contained in it).
Ex: div > p selects all p elements that are inside of a div element.

* means to select all elements.
Ex: .container > * selects anything inside an element of class container.

Answer 2

Thank you
