CSS Remedy, Normalize, and Reset

Sometimes default browser behavior helps, sometimes it gets in the way. Three approaches are:

• CSS Remedy
• CSS Normalize
• CSS Reset

Three approaches:

• CSS Remedy / Sensible Defaults: free yourself from history and provide a remedy for CSS legacy 'mistakes'; provide yourself with sensible starting point and defaults.
• CSS Normalize: give yourself consistency across browsers.
• CSS Reset: give yourself a "blank slate" to build upon; that is, effectively remove all browser default styles.
