## What it is
A CSS reset stylesheet that neutralizes inconsistent browser default styles to provide a uniform baseline for web projects. It is a single reset.css file intended to be imported or copied at the start of a project's styles.

## Use cases
- normalize browser default styles across browsers
- start a new web project with a clean style baseline
- fix inconsistent line-height and spacing between browsers
- reset element styles before applying custom CSS
- avoid cross-browser layout inconsistencies

## When to choose
- starting a new project from scratch that needs a consistent style baseline
- you want a small, MIT-licensed, easily customizable reset file
- you prefer a modern alternative to Eric Meyer's 2011 reset

## When to avoid
- adding it to an existing codebase without being ready to fix layout changes
- you already use a CSS framework with its own reset or preflight
- you need utility classes or components rather than just a reset

## Facets

- maturity: stable
- function: css-framework, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend, web-design
