When would one use Reset CSS over Normalize.css?

1.6k Views Asked by At

I have read this Stack Overflow question on differences between Normalize.css vs Reset CSS, but it doesn't mention when which approach should be used. To me, it seems like normalize.css has way more advantages over Reset CSS.

I can't think of a situation where I would use Reset CSS over normalize.css. Does anyone know of any reason or use case where using Reset CSS is more suitable?

A reset should be more durable when browsers change their default styles. Useful if you're going for complete control over the look

And if you're going for a minimalist style, a reset might be closer to your final style than normalize is

But I mostly agree: if you want a non-ugly website with less effort (and nicer debugging), normalize is a better starting point
