Let's create 22 shapes and figures using pure CSS 🎨
🧵👇🏻
1. Circle 🟡
- Pretty simple, we just need to make a square and apply the border-radius 50% in order to give it a circular shape
2. Semi-circle 🌓
- Create a rectangle
- Apply border radius top left and top right same as height of the rectangle
3. Triangle 🔺
- Creating a triangle is little bit tricky
- Set height and width as zero
- To make this, we draw a solid border and make the side border transparent
4. Trapezium 📐
- Same as triangle but in this case we need to set some width
5. Parallelogram 🔳
- Create a rectangle
- Apply skew in order to tilt it
6. Hexagon 💠

- We need to make two trapeziums of same size but make sure that other trapezium should be upside down
- Align them perfectly
7. Drop 💧
