About these CSS tools

CSS tools format and minify stylesheets, strip leftover vendor prefixes, and generate gradients, shadows, filters, transitions, cubic-bezier curves, keyframes, and text gradients with a live preview. Snippets collect small recipes (centering, truncation) you can copy.

Generators write CSS you paste into a project. They do not compile Tailwind or run PostCSS. Prefixed properties you no longer need can be cleaned if your browserslist already covers those engines.

How these tools run in your browser

Format/minify are text transforms. Visual generators keep state in Svelte components and stringify CSS. Keyframes are a list of stops, not a full animation IDE. Filters compose standard CSS filter functions. Nothing is sent to a "CSS as a service" backend.

Common Use Cases

  • Build a linear or conic gradient and copy the CSS
  • Stack box-shadows without guessing four-value syntax
  • Hear (see) an easing curve before you ship it
  • Minify a small hand-written stylesheet for a CodePen
  • Remove -webkit- linear-gradient prefixes from old copy-paste CSS

Common Mistakes

Minify can break CSS that relies on hacky whitespace or uses certain old IE filters.
Removing prefixes blindly can break Safari versions you still support.
Multiple box-shadows are drawn in order; the first listed is on top.
Filter: drop-shadow is not the same as box-shadow on the box model.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I import a whole Tailwind project?

No. Paste CSS, not a build pipeline. Use your local toolchain for that.

Do gradients work in email HTML?

Many email clients still need fallbacks or VML. Copy the CSS for the web, then check Litmus or a similar lab for email.

Is the bezier editor the same as Chrome DevTools?

Same cubic-bezier idea, smaller feature set. DevTools also shows the animation on a real element in your page.
