Instructor: [00:00] The CSS prop is the easiest way to get started using emotion. Because we've included gatsby-plugin-emotion in our Gatsby site, there's nothing else we have to do to set this up.

[00:09] The CSS prop is a prop that is added to any React element. You can use objects and you can use strings. If you choose to use strings, you have to import CSS from emotion/core. Notice that our heading is red and our paragraph text is blue.
