  • Show HN: Jampack – Optimizes static websites as a post-processing step

    I'm interested in the notion of identifying "critical" CSS that should be inlined rather than live in its own stylesheet.

    I was hoping there was some principled way of identifying critical and non-critical CSS (e.g. user interaction effects like :hover would always be considered non-critical), but it looks like the library it's using just tries to render your page and do a best-effort detection on which rules are considered critical, which is a little unsatisfying: https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/critters

  • Optimize CSS with SAT Solving

    https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/critters Might be a good starting point. It’s designed to inline the css afterward so it’s more focused on extracting used css than removing unused.
  • Critical CSS and Next.js App Directory

    With the Pages dir, we had experimental support for critters. That was good enough for me
  • Remove CSS Styles and Apply Styles to All Elements
    1 project | /r/css | 7 May 2023
    Critters does something similar but it is intended to inline only the CSS that is visible upon the page load (top of the page). There is also a Vite plugin that inlines everything that is possible to inline
  • Optimizing CSS Performance in Nuxt with Critters

    // nuxt.config.js import { defineNuxtConfig } from 'nuxt' export default defineNuxtConfig({ modules: ['@nuxtjs/critters'], critters: { // Options passed directly to critters: https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/critters#critters-2 config: { // Default: 'media' preload: 'swap', }, }, })
  • Critical CSS? Not So Fast
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 10 Sep 2022
    I find critters[0] quite easy to work with and well worth implementing on my nextjs or Astro projects.

    I build a lot of landing pages so there are very few multi page visits.

  • Vue Webpack - possible to extract some CSS but not all?
    1 project | /r/vuejs | 24 Dec 2021
    Doesn't critters do this already? https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/critters I could be wrong though
