  /* Style page content - use this for the main content area */
  .main {
    margin-left: 200px; /* Same as the width of the sidebar */
    padding: 20px;
  }
</style>

<body>

<nav class="sidebar">
  <a href="#">Home</a>
  <a href="#">Services</a>
  <a href="#">Clients</a>
  <a href="#">Contact</a>
</nav>

<div class="main">
  <h2>Main Content</h2>
  <p>This is the main content area. The sidebar on the left is fixed to the viewport, so it stays in place while you scroll the main content.</p>
  <p>We used <code>margin-left: 200px;</code> on this content area to ensure that it isn't hidden behind the 200px wide sidebar.</p>
