Package description
CSSO (CSS Optimizer) is a CSS minifier. It performs three kinds of optimizations: structural optimizations, reducing CSS size by merging blocks with identical properties, removing overridden properties, etc.; cleaning (removing unused @media rules, cutting out the comments, etc.); and compressing (transforming values to shorter forms, merging identical selectors, etc.). It can be used as a command-line tool or as a library.
Minification
Minifies CSS by removing whitespace, comments, and making other optimizations to reduce file size.
const csso = require('csso');
const minifiedCss = csso.minify('.test { color: #ff0000; }').css;
Structural Optimization
Optimizes CSS structure by merging blocks with identical properties and removing overridden properties.
const csso = require('csso');
const optimizedCss = csso.minify('.test { color: red; } .test { font-size: 16px; }', { restructure: true }).css;
Source Map Generation
Generates a source map that can be used to debug the minified CSS by mapping it back to the original sources.
const csso = require('csso');
const result = csso.minify('.test { color: red; }', { sourceMap: true });
const minifiedCss = result.css;
const map = result.map.toString();
clean-css is a fast and efficient CSS optimizer for Node.js and the Web. It provides similar minification capabilities as CSSO but also offers advanced optimizations like restructuring.
uglifycss is a CSS minifier that aims to be fast and simple. It doesn't have as many features as CSSO, focusing mainly on removing whitespace and comments to compress CSS files.
purifycss is a tool to remove unused CSS. Unlike CSSO, which focuses on optimizing existing CSS, purifycss analyzes your content and CSS files to remove unused selectors.
Readme
CSSO (CSS Optimizer) is a CSS minimizer unlike others. In addition to usual minification techniques it can perform structural optimization of CSS files, resulting in smaller file size compared to other minifiers.
This document describes installation and usage of CSSO. If you want to learn more about the inner workings of CSSO, please consult the [manual] (https://github.com/afelix/csso/blob/master/MANUAL.en.md).
Please report issues on [Github] (https://github.com/afelix/csso/issues).

Sample (test.js
):
var csso = require('csso'),
css = '.test, .test { color: rgb(255, 255, 255) }';
console.log(csso.justDoIt(css));
Output (> node test.js
):
.test{color:#fff}
