As you are sharing your work online, I was just giving you ideas on what is currently missing / not done well in other online resources, in an area that is quite close to what you have done. There is a real need for a good style sheet for responsive web. If you were to create it, and I’m sure it will be easy for you to do, you could get a very popular product. Sorry if it is unsolicited, no need to listen to it, it is given with good intentions after spending over 50 hours myself on getting up to speed on doing a responsive web site from scratch. Reset / normalize may not be the best terms to use, but effectively that is what you are doing. I’m not going to go into more depth on this. Sorry if I’m being harsh, but I rather be honest than give some cursory congratulations. As I said earlier, your documentation is very well done but there isn’t much this style sheet does otherwise.

> Reset / normalize may not be the best terms to use, but effectively that is what you are doing. Like others and I have mentioned before, this is not what this CSS is doing, not even effectively. Calling it so would be a mischarterization of this CSS because what this is doing is far simpler than reset/normalization. This may be splitting hairs but I think good terminology and good conventions form the foundation of a good discussion. I liked it better when you characterized this CSS as "exceptionally basic stuff". That is indeed what this is. > Sorry if I’m being harsh, but I rather be honest than give some cursory congratulations. Honest feedback on this CSS is very welcome. Indeed, many others have done so in this thread which helped in improving the CSS as well as the README. That's the whole point of a Show HN post. However, in your previous message you began suggesting what type of problems I should solve instead of sharing this CSS. That felt strange because I am just sharing my hobby work here for fun. I especially did not ask for advice on what I should do with my leisure time.
