What is Minified CSS?
CSS minifying is the process of removing unnecessary characters and formatting from CSS code without altering its functionality. This typically involves removing whitespace, comments, and other non-essential characters, such as line breaks and tabs. The purpose of CSS minifying is to reduce the file size of a CSS file and improve website performance by reducing the amount of data that needs to be transferred over the internet.
Minifying CSS files can significantly decrease load times, particularly for larger projects that use many CSS files or large CSS frameworks. There are various tools available for minifying CSS code, including online tools, code editors, and build tools like Grunt, Gulp, and Webpack.
