ID selector

On the mobile-first video, nick puts the ID selector in the anchor element

<a href="webpage.html" id="logo">

however in the previous video he used a div for the wrapper

<div id="wrapper">

</div>

Why did he not use a div this time?

An ID should always be unique. When you want to style a specific div with an ID, you can use that ID as a selector. If you use div as a selector, then the styling will be applied to al divs on that page.
