How to add CSS code to the existing HTML code in github?

Question

I recently created an account in github and I started coding with a simple exercise on aligning images using HTML and CSS code.

So I wrote the HTML code to align 4 images in a row and now I am stuck on styling part.

I'm unable to style it in <style> element of HTML. I.e. the changes are done within head using <style> tags are not having any effect, in simple there are no changes after I commit it.

I want to add CSS to the existing file. What are the ways to add? How to link CSS code?

Is your question about HTML stuff not working, or is it about Git not working, or both? — Tim Biegeleisen

The answer by @zooted looks on the right track. Maybe you should remove the GitHub tag — Tim Biegeleisen

Here, in the SO, you can add HTML code by using the <apostrophe>. :-) — peterh

Store the CSS file in the same folder as the HTML file, then reference it in your HTML with a link tag.

<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet">

I wrote the html code in Read.md file.

GitHub allows you to write a README using Markdown. One of the features of Markdown is that it supports embedding of HTML.

As implemented by GitHub, however, it does not support stylesheets.

You can't use a custom stylesheet in your README.
