Add disclaimer to allow style reset or normalize #15

Closed JayCarney closed 4 years ago

JayCarney commented 4 years ago

During an interview a candidate mentioned they didn't use a button element as they didn't want to go through all the hassle that a style reset or normalize.css would do for you, and instead used an anchor element as they're already fairly consistent between browsers.

I think it's reasonable to allow the usage of a reset, or normalize.css while still forbidding the use of prepackaged styles like bootstrap

Seems totally fine to me. I'm personally conflicted on the requirement to use scss given the various popular methods of styling that are in the wild today. Feels like just how we'd accept an entry using react, angular, plain html (we don't say you can't!), we should allow entries that may use css in js, scss, less, etc.

I'd still agree to say no to existing UI frameworks on top of that though, of course.
