Rules focus on standard css and aim to be valuable to the majority of users. In addition to these rules there are plugins, which are rules built by the community that support methodologies, toolsets, non-standard CSS features, or very specific use cases. Don't forget to look at the list of plugins for more ways to lint.
Every rule is standalone and turned off by default. None of the rules have default values for their options.
