Easy way to remove inline styles

Here’s a simple way to remove inline styles from 3rd-party libraries.

// Replace .container with the HTML element you're targeting
const container = document.querySelector('.container')
const elements = container.querySelectorAll('*')


for (const element of elements) {
  element.removeAttribute('style')
}

The basic idea is we strip out the style tag from all elements within the container, so you don’t have to fight a never-winning CSS specificity war by using !important.
