sanitize.css is a CSS library that provides consistent, cross-browser default styling of HTML elements alongside useful defaults.
sanitize.css is developed alongside normalize.css, which means every normalization is included, and every normalization and opinion are clearly marked and documented.
sanitize.css wraps styles in zero-specificity selectors using :where().

Import sanitize.css in CSS:
css
@import '~sanitize.css';
@import '~sanitize.css/forms.css';
@import '~sanitize.css/typography.css';
Alternatively, import sanitize.css in JS:
js

import 'sanitize.css/forms.css';
import 'sanitize.css/typography.css';
In webpack.config.js, be sure to use the appropriate loaders:
js

use: [ 'style-loader', 'css-loader' ]
}
]
}
}

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.
