  • 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

    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?

    Doesn't critters do this already? https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/critters I could be wrong though
