What's the white space under textarea by default?

Question

Here is a simplified of my code:

div{
  border: 1px solid;
}

<div>
  <textarea></textarea>
</div>

As you can see, there is a whitespace under the textarea (something like 5px of margin-bottom) which is all by defaul. Since I have never styled the textarea nor the outer div.

So, how can I remove that space? Noted that, giving margin: 0px; to the textarea won't work.

You can update your div css codes like this:

div{
  border: 1px solid;
  display: flex;
}
