I'm developing a website and trying to debug in chrome dev tool. Dev tool is showing following css style:

table {
    display: table;
    border-collapse: separate;
    border-spacing: 2px;
    border-color: grey;
}

But it it important to note that I did not define them. On Chrome dev tool it says User Agent style instead of css file.

How to change these style css?

A user agent style sheet is a ”default style sheet” provided by the browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge, etc.) in order to present the page in a way that satisfies ”general presentation expectations.” For example, a default style sheet would provide base styles for things like font size, borders, and spacing between elements. It is common to employ a reset style sheet to deal with inconsistencies among browsers.

For this create CSS class and override the agent style sheet.
