CleanCSS - Optimise your website CSS file


CleanCSS is a useful website that helps you optimise your CSS file in order to make it small and load faster on the internet. The optimiser are based on csstidy , and opensource css parser and optimiser.

CleanCSS is handy for removing redundant css selector, thus producing cleaner and more readable css file. The service support css version 1.0 up to 2.1 and has an option for maximum compression by sacrificing readability over size. This will produce small sized css but unreadable css file.

The main limitation of CleanCSS that it does not validate the CSS file itself, it assume that the supplied input is valid. This requires  you to validate your css file first using W3C CSS Validator before you start using CleanCSS.

I’ve tried CleanCSS personally, and it works briliantly on my CSS files. I think you should give it a shot too!
