This is a text shadowing effect.
text-shadow:
_horizontal_offset_
_vertical_offset_
(_blur_)
_color_,
(_other_shadows_);
let’s take a look at a live example at cdpn.io/e/aDLCl.
The text-shadow
property has a twin: box-shadow. Go to
the Box Shadow page to see a detailed description of the
syntax. It is very similar.
Tip – you can use multiple text shadow values to create a pseudo-3D effect.
Browser Support
IE10+. In older browsers, you can use a fallback without a shadow (preferred) or simply create an IE8 version. Using Modernizr conditions or IE conditional comments you can create a DropShadow (using a Microsoft filter).
