systematize.scss: normalize styles across browsers

Like normalize.css, but with system fonts.

npm


This project is an SCSS version of normalize.css (8.0.1 at the time of this writing.) They share the following functionality:

  • Normalize styles across browsers
  • Preserve useful browser defaults, rather than erasing them
  • Correct bugs and common browser inconsistencies
  • Improve usability with subtle changes

Additionally, systematize.scss aims to do the following:

  • Default to system fonts, and better typography in general
  • Be slightly more opinionated while retaining clear focus

System Fonts

-apple-system Apple
Segoe UI Windows
system-ui Generic font family
Roboto Android
Helvetica Neue Old Apple
sans-serif Catch-all

Segoe UI comes before system-ui for reasons.

Monospaced Fonts

Font family name Why
SF Mono Apple
Ubuntu Mono Ubuntu
Consolas Windows
DejaVu Sans Mono Bitstream Vera Sans Mono (Linux)
Menlo Bitstream Vera Sans Mono (Apple)

There is no Monaco because Menlo shipped with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard in 1948.
