seems that
min font = sets max videos showed,
take for example a twitch video page
- what does standard font ‘Font size’ do tho??
standard font = sets max size of all fonts ???
-
does the type/form of font set override the type of font used on sites ???
-
how frequent (what %) are ‘Fixed-width font’ cross sites ???
-
where in this entire web are good links to helpful answers to extremely basic questions ???
does anyone know?
every browser implements a user agent stylesheet with the current agreed upon root font size of 16px. however, each website / web application will implement their own stylesheet, or author stylesheet, which will overwrite styles of the user agent. there are further features of a browser that can complicate this relationship
what you want to gain an understanding into is the cascade, the algorithm that gives CSS its magic. to understand the basics i suggest highly to go to the source: https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS/#css or https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US.
everything you want/need to know is there.
