# normalize.css v2
2011-04-28 05:56:02 +00:00
2012-07-08 22:43:00 +00:00
Normalize.css is a customisable CSS file that makes browsers render all
elements more consistently and in line with modern standards.
2011-04-28 05:56:02 +00:00
The project relies on researching the differences between default browser
styles in order to precisely target only the styles that need or benefit from
normalizing.
