This is a very simple vscode extension. Takes your css file and minify it. It doesn't need any special configuration and it doesn't mess up your css file. This tests are based on Mocha framework.

How to

Just press Ctrl|Cmd + F1|F2 and type css minify

Features

  • Removes the units from 0 values. From 0px to 0
  • Removes the 0 from any float value. From 0.16em to .16em
  • Removes the last ; from a closure.
  • Removes usless white spaces.
  • Reduce hexadecimals values. From #ffffff to #fff
  • Removes single and double quotes.
  • Replace none by 0. (only in font-size-adjust, border and outline)

The extension will generate a new file with the the same name plus min.css and save it in the same folder of your css file you are minifying.

Be aware of how you format your code

If you don't format your code well the extension won't work as espected.
