normalize.css is a small CSS stylesheet that makes browsers render HTML elements more consistently and in line with modern standards. It is a widely adopted alternative to traditional CSS resets, preserving useful defaults while fixing bugs and browser inconsistencies.

Use cases

  • make my website look the same in all browsers
  • reset default browser styles for a new project
  • fix inconsistent styling of form inputs across browsers
  • normalize html5 element rendering
  • replace a css reset with something less aggressive
  • baseline stylesheet for a css framework or boilerplate

When to choose

  • you want consistent cross-browser rendering without stripping all default styles
  • you are building a site or framework from scratch and need a solid style baseline
  • you want a tiny, well-documented, dependency-free stylesheet

When to avoid

  • you use a modern CSS framework that already includes a reset or preflight
  • you need a full utility or component framework rather than a style baseline
  • you require support for very old browsers like IE9 or earlier
