# The CSS
|
|
|
|
HTML5 Boilerplate's CSS includes:
|
|
|
|
* [Normalize.css](#normalizecss)
|
|
* [style.css](#stylecss)
|
|
|
|
## Normalize.css
|
|
|
|
In order to make browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with
|
|
modern standards, we include Normalize.css — a modern, HTML5-ready alternative
|
|
to CSS resets.
|
|
|
|
As opposed to CSS resets, Normalize.css:
|
|
|
|
* targets only the styles that need normalizing
|
|
* preserves useful browser defaults rather than erasing them
|
|
* corrects bugs and common browser inconsistencies
|
|
* improves usability with subtle improvements
|
|
* doesn't clutter the debugging tools
|
|
* has better documentation
|
|
|
|
For more information about Normalize.css, please refer to its [project
|
|
page](https://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/).
|
|
|
|
## style.css
|
|
|
|
Several base styles are included that build upon `Normalize.css`. These styles:
|
|
|
|
* provide basic typography settings that improve text readability
|
|
* protect against unwanted `text-shadow` during text highlighting
|
|
* tweak the default alignment of some elements (e.g.: `img`, `video`,
|
|
`fieldset`, `textarea`)
|
|
* style the prompt that is displayed to users using an outdated browser
|
|
* and more...
|
|
|
|
These styles are included in
|
|
[style.css](https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/main/dist/css/style.css)
|
|
using [main.css](https://github.com/h5bp/main.css) project.
|
|
See the main.css [documentation](https://github.com/h5bp/main.css/blob/main/README.md#features)
|
|
for a full discussion of these styles.
