## Features

##### Box sizing defaults to border-box

```css
*, ::before, ::after {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}
```

##### Backgrounds do not repeat by default

```css
*, ::before, ::after {
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
```

##### Pseudo-elements inherit text decoration and vertical alignment

```css
::before,
::after {
  text-decoration: inherit;
  vertical-align: inherit;
}
```

##### Cursors only change to hint non-obvious interfaces

```css
html {
  cursor: default;
}
```

##### The default font is the system ui font

```css
html {
  font-family:
    system-ui,
    /* macOS 10.11-10.12 */ -apple-system,
    /* Windows 6+ */ Segoe UI,
    /* Android 4+ */ Roboto,
    /* Ubuntu 10.10+ */ Ubuntu,
    /* Gnome 3+ */ Cantarell,
    /* KDE Plasma 4+ */ Oxygen,
    /* fallback */ sans-serif,
    /* macOS emoji */ "Apple Color Emoji",
    /* Windows emoji */ "Segoe UI Emoji",
    /* Windows emoji */ "Segoe UI Symbol",
    /* Linux emoji */ "Noto Color Emoji";
}
```

##### Tabs appear the same on the web as in a typical editor

```css
html {
  tab-size: 4;
}
```

##### Words break to prevent prevent overflow

```css
html {
  word-break: break-all;
}
```

##### Documents do not use a margin for outer padding

```css
body {
  margin: 0;
}
```

##### Navigation lists do not include a marker style

```css
nav ol, nav ul {
  list-style: none;
}
```

##### Pre-formatted and code-formatted text uses the monospace system ui font

```css
code, kbd, pre, samp {
  font-family:
    /* macOS 10.10+ */ Menlo,
    /* Windows 6+ */ Consolas,
    /* Android 4+ */ Roboto Mono,
    /* Ubuntu 10.10+ */ Ubuntu Monospace,
    /* KDE Plasma 4+ */ Oxygen Mono,
    /* Linux/OpenOffice fallback */ Liberation Mono,
    /* fallback */ monospace;
}
```

##### Text selections do not include text shadows

```css
::selection {
  background-color: #b3d4fc;
  color: #000;
  text-shadow: none;
}
```

##### Media elements align to the text center of other content

```css
audio, canvas, iframe, img, svg, video {
  vertical-align: middle;
}
```

##### SVGs fallback to the current text color

```css
svg {
  fill: currentColor;
}
```

##### Tables do not include additional border spacing

```css
table {
  border-collapse: collapse;
}
```

##### Form controls are easily style-able

```css
button, input, select, textarea {
  font-family: inherit;
  font-size: inherit;
  line-height: inherit;
}
```

##### Textareas only resize vertically by default

```css
textarea {
  resize: vertical;
}
```

##### Single taps are dispatched immediately on clickable elements

```css
a, area, button, input, label, select, summary, textarea, [tabindex] {
  -ms-touch-action: manipulation;
  touch-action: manipulation;
}
```

##### ARIA roles include visual cursor hints

```css
[aria-busy="true"] {
  cursor: progress;
}

[aria-controls] {
  cursor: pointer;
}

[aria-disabled], [disabled] {
  cursor: default;
}
```

##### Visually hidden content remains accessible

```css
[aria-hidden="false"][hidden]:not(:focus) {
  clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
  display: inherit;
  position: absolute;
}
```

## Differences

[normalize.css] and [sanitize.css] correct browser bugs while carefully testing
and documenting changes. normalize.css styles adhere to css specifications.
sanitize.css styles adhere to common developer expectations and preferences.
[reset.css] unstyles all elements. Both sanitize.css and normalize.css are
maintained in sync.
