In simple words !important in any css gives it prior importance.

Suraj the most important behaviour of ‘!important’ rule are 1. overriding INLINE styles on elements which are not have ‘!important’ in them. 2. the second use is to override long chains in selectors. so so as solution as code 3. the third is override partucular rules in case of classes that are responsible for behaviour. as example .hide {display: none!important} to be sure that element will be defenitely hidden also in case of overwritten display property etc

don’t use it, it causes a lot of problems, organize your code instead.

Lets say we have a code of Css: “div.Div1 { display: none; display: table !important “ Then Instead of “display: none” it will do the Most Important one(!important) one “display: table !important”.
