🎯 What is CSS Minification?
CSS minification is the process of removing unnecessary characters from CSS code without changing its functionality. This includes whitespace, comments, and redundant code, resulting in smaller file sizes and faster loading websites.
Why minify CSS? Smaller CSS files load faster, reducing page load times and improving user experience. This is especially important for mobile users and slow connections.
Safe optimisations: Our minifier only removes unnecessary content and applies safe optimisations that don't change how your CSS works.
🔧 Optimisation Features
- Comment removal: Strips all CSS comments (/* */) from your code
- Whitespace removal: Removes unnecessary spaces, tabs, and line breaks
- Semicolon optimisation: Removes trailing semicolons in declaration blocks
- Color shortening: Converts #ffffff to #fff, #000000 to #000
- Empty rule removal: Removes selectors with no declarations
- Zero optimisation: Converts 0px to 0, removes leading zeros from decimals
- Safe processing: Preserves CSS functionality while maximising compression
