ParticipantHey guys, i want to know what you guys use when it’s time to begin a new project ? Last project i used this ( http://blog.vandenoostende.com/2011/sensible-mediaqueries/ ) who was great. Normally i use codekit, sublimetext2, less css with a couple of mixins and a classic css reset. Today i just saw on codepen normalized or reset and i’m not sure i understand the difference between them? Thanks !

ParticipantThere are 3 different things when it comes to reset CSS styles:
* Barbarian reset a.k.a* { padding:0; margin:0; }
. Works great, but not recommanded since it resets everything including things you don’t want to be reseted.
* Eric Meyer’s CSS reset (http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/). Works great since it resets only what needs to be reseted.
* Nicolas Gallagher’s CSS normalize (http://necolas.github.com/normalize.css/). Doesn’t reset anything, instead it normalizes browser inconsistancies. Probably the best choice.January 14, 2013 at 5:27 am #121016Andy Howells
ParticipantI personally use Eric Meyer’s reset (which is the default reset in Compass also). I use it over normalize because normalize slightly steps over into setting default styes, rather than just stripping away.
As I prefer to opt-in, rather than opt-out of styles, Eric’s one is a perfect fit.

MemberNormalize for me, slightly stripped down.

MemberI normally start with [Initializr](http://www.initializr.com/). Its a great resosurce. I’ll also use [Normalize](http://necolas.github.com/normalize.css/)

ParticipantLately I’ve been experimenting with [Yeoman](http://yeoman.io/) and their quickstart init.
For grid (ish… =) I prefer [Golden Grid System](http://goldengridsystem.com/) and the reset is a slightly modified Normalize.css.
As a preprocessor I use Sass with Compass with some of my own mixins compiled from various sources.
I also want to recommend [Selectivizr](http://selectivizr.com/) if you like me want to use some of the more interesting CSS-selectors.
Also, _obviously_, Modernizr, lately using the [grunt-modernizr task](https://github.com/doctyper/grunt-modernizr)
