+# Base Styles For Text Link
+
+[Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/)'s base styles directive includes a CSS
+reset called [Preflight](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/preflight). It normalizes
+styling inconsistencies between browsers, and in the process it wipes out a
+bunch of default styles you might be expecting.
+
+A notable one is styling for a text link (`<a href ...>link</a>`). These tend
+to be blue with an underline, use the _pointer_ cursor, and sometimes change
+color slightly when you hover or _activate_ them.
+
+Breaking from that mold a little, here is a reasonable base style for a text
+link:
+
+```html
+<a
+  className="underline text-purple-600 pointer hover:text-purple-800"
+  href="https://twitter.com/jbrancha"
+>
+  twitter
+</a>
+```
+
+This adds the `text-decoration: underline`, some color, the `cursor: pointer`,
+and a slightly darker color on hover.
+
+And for a slight variation, I'll make the `underline` text decoration appear
+only on hover:
+
+```css
+<a
+  className="hover:underline text-purple-600 pointer hover:text-purple-800"
+  href="https://twitter.com/jbrancha"
+>
+  twitter
+</a>
+```
