How does CSS minification work?

CSS minification removes unnecessary characters like whitespace, comments, line breaks, and redundant semicolons. The resulting CSS is functionally identical but much smaller, leading to faster downloads.

Will minified CSS work the same?

Yes, minified CSS is functionally identical to the original. Only non-essential characters are removed — all selectors, properties, and values remain intact.

What compression level should I use?

For most cases, the recommended level provides the best balance of size reduction and safety. Use advanced for maximum compression when you can test the output thoroughly.

Is this CSS minifier free?

Yes, completely free with no limits. Process as many CSS files as you need, no registration required.
