Vanilla CSS is a minimal baseline stylesheet for any web project. It includes a basic reset and default styling for all HTML5 elements (which you can see live below).
- Built-in variables
- Easy to extend
- Only 5KB
Usage:
Download the main stylesheet from this project, then copy and paste the following inside your head element:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="vanilla.css">
Or import directly in your own CSS:
@import url('vanilla.css');
This project is completely free and open source. Check it out on sourcehut.

Paragraphs
A paragraph (from the Greek paragraphos, “to write beside” or “written beside”) is a self-contained unit of a discourse in writing dealing with a particular point or idea. A paragraph consists of one or more sentences. Though not required by the syntax of any language, paragraphs are usually an expected part of formal writing, used to organize longer prose.
Blockquotes
A block quotation (also known as a long quotation or extract) is a quotation in a written document, that is set off from the main text as a paragraph, or block of text.
It is typically distinguished visually using indentation and a different typeface or smaller size quotation. It may or may not include a citation, usually placed at the bottom.
