Using class or id or using the designated tags

Question

I am confuse over the use of div class on my header, nav or footer tags. Which one is better? Should I use the designated tags or better with class/id

Answer 1

When you are certain that there won't be any more header, nav or footer elements, then you can use directly the tag name for styling

But it is not a good practice, because sometimes If you are using some framework, and you directly target, let's say , the header Element in Css and added some property, then it could reflect to more places because your Css will override the one you have used from the framework

Answer 2

You should prefer semantic tags to frame a structure.div should be used inside that to create component.

Class/id are preferred more than tag because it helps to target the tags in css/js/jQuery...and many more.
