minimax.css

A reset CSS library with variables

@bakung-ui/minimax.css is a standalone "Reboot" stylesheet formerly bundled with @bakung-ui/bakung.css. I separated it specifically for simple blogs that don’t need a massive UI kit but still want to make the most of default HTML elements.

Our versioning is based on the year and month. Version 26.1.0 was launched in January 2026; all future releases, including minor updates, will follow this year/month format, for ex. 27.3.0 is release in March 2027.

INSTALL

npm i @bakung-ui/minimax.css

Extended details and known issues

Additional detail and explanation of the esoteric parts of minimax.css.

origin

minimax.css use necolas/normalize.css, you can think this library is another variation with different flavor and additional toppings.

pre, code, kbd, samp

The font-family: monospace, monospace hack fixes the inheritance and scaling of font-size for preformatted text. The duplication of monospace is intentional. Source.

sub, sup

Normally, using sub or sup affects the line-box height of text in all browsers. Source.

select

By default, Chrome on OS X and Safari on OS X allow very limited styling of select, unless a border property is set. The default font weight on optgroup elements cannot safely be changed in Chrome on OSX and Safari on OS X.

[type="checkbox"]

It is recommended that you do not style checkbox and radio inputs as Firefox's implementation does not respect box-sizing, padding, or width.

[type="number"]

Certain font size values applied to number inputs cause the cursor style of the decrement button to change from default to text.

[type="search"]

The search input is not fully stylable by default. In Chrome and Safari on OSX/iOS you can't control font, padding, border, or background. In Chrome and Safari on Windows you can't control border properly. It will apply border-width but will only show a border color (which cannot be controlled) for the outer 1px of that border. Applying -webkit-appearance: textfield addresses these issues without removing the benefits of search inputs (e.g. showing past searches).
