### Recommended
Add your base font and color styles to the `body` element in your stylesheet, all other elements will inherit the style from the body.
Add your base font and color styles to the `html` or `body` element in your stylesheet, all other elements will inherit the style from the body.
```css
/* app.css */
body {
html {
color: #333;
font: 16px/1.4 "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;
}
```
### Styling generated content
It is discouraged to define styles for raw html tags apart from `body` and `html`, use classes (or any other selectors / system) for styling.
If you need to create styles for tags generated by a CMS or markdown wrap them in a class (e.g. `.type`).
```css
.type h1 {
\* styles *\
/* styles */
}
.type h2 {
\* styles *\
/* styles */
}

How to create the styles is up to the author, it can be by creating classes, compose style using functional classes, styling inside a react component, etc. In any case the author always gets a clean slate for styling each element and it is up to him/her to reuse the styles or start from scratch for every instance.
## Why?
[Eric Meyer's reset](https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/) resets properties on elements that do not need it, are unused or even deprecated, this creates bloat in the browser's style inspector which makes developing and debugging less efficient. [Normalize.css](https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css) makes elements look consistent across browsers and it does it well, but it does not remove the user agent's assumptions about how things look. Destyle.css targets both reseting & normalization.

- Fixed border color inheritance for `table` borders in Chrome
- **v2.0.0.** 2020-10-15 - Add `border-style: solid` and `border-width: 0` to `*, ::before, ::after` selector. This change might affect how borders are used and therefor is considered a breaking change. The benefit is that simply adding a border-width to an element will display a border without the need to set the border-style explicitly.
