Prisma saysA CSS reset (or normalize) erases inconsistent browser defaults so you start from a known baseline.
Browsers ship different default margins, font sizes, and box behaviors. A reset zeroes them; normalize.css smooths them while keeping useful defaults. A small modern reset (box-sizing, zero body margin, responsive media, sane line-height) is enough for most projects.
