body {width: 100%; height: 100%;}
Why do people use the CSS code in cases when it does nothing but not very nice horizontal scrolling? Is it some tradition?

Ginfio I thought that children elements may expand parent elements and resizing children is a better way than resizing parents. Of course to have a child fully expanded a parent the parent should have no padding.

Ginfio also I heard that height: 100% works not very well.

I think itâs to allow the children elements to be able to have 100% width / height.
<body>
<div> </div>
</body>
I think itâs like... in this code example above:
the div canât have 100% height if the body doesnât.
