What does minifying CSS mean?
CSS minification is the process of reducing stylesheet size while preserving how the CSS behaves in the browser. It removes unnecessary comments, line breaks, indentation and spaces that are useful while editing but not needed for production delivery.
Smaller CSS files can download faster, reduce bandwidth usage and help pages become render-ready sooner. That matters for visitors on mobile networks, large stylesheets, repeated page views and performance-sensitive websites.
This minifier also applies small CSS optimizations such as shortening eligible hex colors, removing redundant zero units and preserving important strings and URL values so stylesheet references remain intact.
