When to use this CSS minifier
Use it to prepare a smaller text asset for a static website, inspect the difference between source and compact code, or create a separate release copy without editing the original.
Limitations
CSSO removes whitespace and applies local CSS optimizations; cross-rule restructuring is disabled. /*! license comments are retained. CSS parsers recover from some malformed but syntactically tolerated declarations; review the output and test your stylesheet in the target browser. The tool does not resolve @import, preprocess Sass/Less, or bundle assets. Large files may briefly occupy the browser main thread. Only UTF-8 source files are supported; downloads are UTF-8.
CSS Minifier FAQ
Is my code uploaded?
No. Selected files and pasted code are processed locally in your browser. Loading the page itself still makes ordinary website requests.
Will it combine selectors across rules?
No. Cross-rule restructuring is disabled. CSSO may still shorten values within individual declarations, so check the resulting styles.
Can I save the original file?
Your original remains untouched; download creates a separate .css copy. Rename it as needed.
