+Browsers nowadays are much better at presenting HTML in a consistent manner, making CSS resets of the past largely unnecessary. However, **default browser styles are not particularly great** in most cases, which is why there are tons of CSS resets out there. Drawing inspiration from some of them, here's my opinionated CSS reset, along with an explanation of why I chose to include each rule.
+
+```css
+html {
+  max-width: 70ch;
+  margin: auto;
+  padding: 3em 1em;
+  font-family: system-ui, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Cantarell,
+    'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
+  font-size: 1.25em;
+  line-height: 1.75;
+}
+
+body {
+  margin: 0;
+}
+
+h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
+  margin: 3em 0 1em;
+}
+
+p, ul, ol {
+  margin-bottom: 2em;
+  color: #1d1d1d;
+}
+
+small {
+  font-size: 80%;
+}
+
+sub, sup {
+  font-size: 75%;
+  line-height: 0;
+  position: relative;
+  vertical-align: baseline;
+}
+
+sub {
+  bottom: -0.25em;
+}
+
+sup {
+  top: -0.5em;
+}
+
+pre, code, kbd {
+  font-family: monospace, monospace;
+  font-size: 1em;
+}
+```
+
+- `html`:
+  - `max-width` - Use `ch` units to set the maximum width in the middle of the optimal readable range (60-80 characters).
+  - `margin` - Center content on the page.
+  - `padding` - Prevent edge-to-edge text on smaller viewports.
+  - `font-family` - Use the [system font stack](/css/s/system-font-stack) to ensure the best possible font rendering. `system-ui` is a new generic font family that replaces `-apple-system` and `BlinkMacSystemFont`.
+  - `font-size` - Use a larger font size for better readability and to keep up with recent design trends.
+  - `line-height` - Use a larger line height to increase visual clarity.
+- `body`:
+  `margin` - Remove the default margin in all browsers.
+- `h1`-`h6`:
+  - `margin` - Use larger margins for headers to improve visual hierarchy.
+- `p`, `ul`, `ol`:
+  - `margin-bottom` - Add spacing between textual elements.
+  - `color` - Soften text color to improve readability.
+- `small`:
+  - `font-size` - Correct font size discrepancies between browsers.
+- `sub`, `sup`:
+  - `font-size` - Correct font size discrepancies between browsers.
+  - `line-height` - Prevent elements from affecting line height.
+  - `position` - Position elements relative to parent.
+  - `vertical-align` - Align elements to the baseline.
+  - `bottom`, `top` - Correctly position elements.
+- `pre`, `code`, `kbd`:
+  - `font-family` - Use monospace fonts for code elements.
+  - `font-size` - Correct font size discrepancies between browsers.
