HTML Element Inspector

This is a library of core HTML elements influenced only by the CSS stylesheets in this page. Use the dropdown at the top of this page to help you identify these 'opinionated' styles from different frameworks such as Evo, Bootstrap, and Foundation. There's even an option for 'none' so you can see what your browser defaults to. Note that no additional padding or margin spaces have been applied, so you may see the HTML elements colide into one another. This is so we don't mask any opinionated margins or padding that a particular framework applies automatically.

How is this useful? Did you know that CSS frameworks are 'opinionated' and will enforce design styling upon basic HTML element tags. Even CSS 'resets' such as Normalize are opinionated for some colors and sizes. As you perform design QA on your website, you may wonder why your text is gray instead of black. Could be because of Bootstrap's styles? Check out the Bootstrap elements page from the dropdown above, and you'll notice that most of the text is a subtle gray color. Problem identified!
