To Reset or to Normalize, That is the Question.



As things continue to develop at break-neck speed in the online world, it can be tough to keep up with it all and you may end up using something just because you are already aware of it. The goal of a CSS Reset Stylesheet is to reduce browser inconsistencies in things like default line heights, margins and font sizes of headings, etc. Some basic styling is perfectly fine to leave in place, and you can actually save yourself some time and energy by doing so.

Allowing certain elements like the headers, ordered lists, block quotes, forms and many other simple things to be left alone will save you the effort of recreating them later on. Normalize.css does this for you! Many times these elements will not have any effect on your work, and if this is the case for the majority of your projects than this reset may be for you!
