Cssnano is a modular minifier that is built on top of the PostCSS ecosystem. Its main functionality is to help optimize the size of your CSS files. By streamlining your CSS coding, it can significantly reduce the size of your files and, consequently, improve your website’s load times. A faster loading time can lead to better user experience and potentially higher search engine rankings.
You can start using cssnano by first installing it in your project through npm with the command npm install cssnano. After the installation, you can use it as a plugin in your javascript file. Here is an example of how you can use it:
var cssnano = require('cssnano');
cssnano.process(css, options).then(function (result) {
// result.css is the minified CSS
});
In this example, css is your CSS string that you want to minify, and options is an object where you can specify the options for the minification process.
