The CSS reset normalises some elements and sets up other things for best practice. It:
- Makes everything
border-sizing: border-boxfor consistency - Removes browser's margins on most elements, except lists
- It removes list styles when
role="list"is set. Add this attribute your markup when adding a class to style a list to remove thelist-styleand use a class to style it more. - Makes the body fill the viewport vertically
- Makes images size more reliable
- Sets up a nice line-height for text and a shorter one for headings
- Make sure links have underlines by default (unless a class is applied)
- Forces inputs and buttons to inherit their font from the document
- Makes the textarea bigger by default, i.e. distinguishable from a text input
- Make interactive elements use the body's font, rather than a system one
