Hello World!

Meaning

The bottom CSS property participates in setting the vertical position of a positioned element. It has no effect on non-positioned elements.

1: position: absolute; or position: fixed; - the bottom property sets the bottom edge of an element to a unit above/below the bottom edge of its nearest positioned ancestor.

2: position: relative; - the bottom property makes the element's bottom edge to move above/below its normal position.

3: position: sticky; - the bottom property behaves like its position is relative when the element is inside the viewport, and like its position is fixed when it is outside.

4: position: static; - the bottom property has no effect.
