A modern alternative to CSS resets
Go to file
Nicolas Gallagher 7e014980b9 Drop legacy browser support
No longer supports IE 6/7, Firefox < 4, and Safari < 5.

* Make use of `inherit` to simplify some of the rules.

* Remove a lot of padding and margin normalization, particularly for
  typographic elements, because modern browsers share common base
  styles.

* Add `quotes` normalization. While all target browsers support
  `quotes`, they don't share a common set of quote styles. Opera and IE
  use "curly" quotes whereas other browsers do not. Browsers don't
  appear to set different quotes depending on the language (via the
  `lang` attribute) of the content.

* Remove all list normalizations and they aren't needed anymore.

* Remove a handful of form normalizations that targetted IE 6/7 or
  Firefox 3.

normalize.css v1.0.1

Normalize.css is a customisable CSS file that makes browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with modern standards. We researched the differences between default browser styles in order to precisely target only the styles that need normalizing.

What does it do?

  • Preserves useful defaults, unlike many CSS resets.
  • Normalizes styles for a wide range of elements.
  • Corrects bugs and common browser inconsistencies.
  • Improves usability with subtle improvements.
  • Explains what code does using detailed comments.

How to use it

Normalize.css is intended to be used as an alternative to CSS resets.

It's suggested that you read the normalize.css file and consider customising it to meet your needs. Alternatively, include the file in your project and override the defaults later in your CSS.
