## Description

typo.css is a CSS framework and reset library designed to normalize browser styles and optimize the visual rendering of Chinese characters and punctuation. It provides a web typography system that establishes a consistent visual baseline by removing default browser styling and synchronizing the rendering of Chinese text across different web environments.

The project specializes in professional Chinese typesetting through a system of utility classes. These tools allow for the application of grammatical markers, standardized punctuation formatting, and rendering optimizations to improve the readability and flow of Chinese characters.

The framework also covers document layout management, including text wrapping control to prevent layout breakage and print-inspired visual effects such as drop caps. It includes normalization for various HTML elements to ensure a uniform typographic foundation.
