A tiny modern CSS reset

minireset.css

npm npm

A tiny modern CSS reset that covers the basics:

  • resets the font sizes: so that using semantic markup doesn't affect the styling
  • resets the block margins: so that the spacing is only applied when you need it
  • resets tables: so that tabular data only takes the space it needs
  • preserves the inline paddings: so that buttons and inputs keep their default layout
  • sets the border-box box sizing: so that borders and paddings don't affect the set dimensions
  • sets responsive media elements: so that images and embeds scale with the browser width

Download/Install

Download the latest version

npm install minireset.css

Or clone the repo.

Options

It will be available in your modules directory in /node_modules/minireset.css/:

  • minireset.css: CSS rules
  • minireset.min.css: minified CSS rules (recommended for production sites)
  • minireet.sass: CSS rules written in SASS (recommended for SCSS/SASS projects)
  • minireset.css.lit.js: CSS rules exported as a CSSResult object for LitElement projects (recommended for Web Component projects based on LitElement)

    [img] display: block

    Hey,

    how about adding this, to avoid the unwanted, very weird space below images. Or is this issue already covered with something else?

    img{
        display: block; /* avoids space at bottom */
    }

    iframe height auto

    Not 100% sure it's an issue but when I upgraded Bulma some of the social iframe buttons had too big of an height. See screenshot. If the height: auto is toggled off the Github button returned to its normal height.

    Adding support for LitElement

    The story

    I am working on a website made out of Web Components based on LitElement. Nodes declared inside Web Components such as p or ul tags inherit the user agent style sheet, as Web Components encapsulate the style of tags inside (inside their ShadowDOM when this is used wich is always by default in LitElement and in most practical cases).

    This means that a global stylesheet to reset styles won't work with Web Components. We need to import the reset styles in every Web Component. That's when your nice project comes in super handy. The fact that is mini makes a HUGE difference against other bigger resets such as normalize.css.

    The problem

    I had to manually copy the CSS from your minified file and make it available to all my Web Components. And that is perfectly fine. However, it would be much cooler if I can declare it as a dependency and use it directly, wouldn't it?

    What I've done

    • Improved docs so users will know what is available for them
    • Added a LitElement compatible version:
      • rollup is in charge of creating minireset.css.lit.js out of src/minireset.css.js
      • Added rollup and rollup-plugin-lit-css dependencies
      • Added a rollup config file
      • Added a build script to the build chain
      • Added our newly created version available in the project
    • Bump up minor version since this is a new feature to 0.1.0
    • Added package-lock.json, which is recommended to be versioned (optional)

    I've noticed the npm published version is 0.0.6 but here the code was in 0.0.5 🤔

    Trouble linking

    Am I an idiot? I'm having trouble linking this like this:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jgthms/minireset.css/master/minireset.css">
    

    But works when I download and import locally. 🙉

    Minireset conflict with custom styles

    https://github.com/jgthms/minireset.css/blob/66b8b83c991933cb0fb16c897f3d427990509555/minireset.sass#L78

    I'm using a simple rule:

    td
      text-align: center
    

    since the rule in the minireset is more specific, it take precedence over mine.

    I can easily solve this by modifing the minireset, but then what is the idea of using the minireset. I could use my own version, but the truth is that I dont even know what does the line that I removed.

    This is an issue and a question...

    What &:not([align]) does? I couldn't find anything on the web (I mean like, what exactly does?)

    Thanks.

    Remove `height: auto` from media elements

    This is a backport from bulma commit b8a7ab2a.

    I am a user of bulma and found that <audio> element is broken in Chrome because the height is auto.

    This PR will fix the issue of bulma again.

    Block fix

    Copying code from Bulma: https://github.com/jgthms/bulma/blob/master/css/bulma.css#L312. Shouldn't minireset.css include a precaution for HTML5 elements for older browsers?

    article,
    aside,
    figure,
    footer,
    header,
    hgroup,
    section {
      display: block;
    }
    

    Seems like it should be the second rule, beneath

    ... {
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0;
    }
