Does every html doc come w/ default styling?

I noticed that this introductory code does not include any font type or size instructions. Is there a default setting? Just curious.

Yes, they do. Each browser has it's own 'styles' that applies to the markup langauge, as well as to programming languages like JavaScript. That why frameworks and libraries are good, because they remove all the unconsiositnes and save a lot of time.

You can use styles like normalize.css or reset.css( makes every style on the page the same), etc.. to help your workflow etc..

Hope this helps

Ah, so it varies by browser. And we would use our style sheets (in this case) to override the browser's defaults. Thanks!
