0.3.7 forward telegram
The community around grunt-uncss has continued growing lately, and we're thrilled to hear more and more people are using it to trim down their Bootstrap projects. We have a few pieces of news to share as part of this release.
Yeoman generator
A number of you have asked how to use grunt-uncss with Yeoman. To help, we've put together a new Yeoman generator generator-webapp-uncss with uncss support. It's based off generator-webapp and works with both CSS and Sass.
To install and run the generator:
$ npm install --g generator-webapp-uncss && yo webapp-uncssshould do the trick. Quick preview of grunt-uncss running during grunt build:
Interested in adding similar support to your own generator? Here are the specific changes you'll need.
A new release
0.3.7 is a maintenance release of grunt-uncss, updating a number of our dependencies to their latest stable versions. To get it, run:
npm update grunt-uncss --save-devAs per the last release, we've locked in the task to a stable version of UnCSS and will be updating to a more recent build once we consider them more reliable. @giakki is otherwise doing a fantastic job continuing to evolve the UnCSS module.
Another piece of news for this release is that @XhmikosR, who has been helping out pretty much everywhere on the project is now a co-maintainer. Please join me in welcoming this awesome human to the project!
More examples
Your biggest ask so far has been more examples of how to integrate grunt-uncss into different types of projects. Everything from static sites, to apps, to Wordpress.
To help, we've collected a few open-source examples of projects using the task and hope their setups provide some inspiration on how to fix removing unused CSS into your own workflows.

0.3.5
This patch release locks UnCSS to 0.8.1, the most recent version of the package we consider stable for production use. Dependency updates have also been made as part of this version.
grunt-uncss is now used by sites like HTML5Boilerplate.com as part of their Grunt build-process and is under consideration by Ubuntu.com for future removal of unused styles in their site builds.
v0.3.4
v0.3.0
- Update dependencies including
uncssto 0.8.0 (the release from this week) - Enable
reportby default and switch to usingmaxmin
This release officially moves away from supporting Node 0.8. grunt-uncss 0.2.x should be used if you require a version of the project which still supports it.
How does UnCSS (and grunt-uncss) now remove unused rules?
The process by which UnCSS removes the unused rules is as follows:
- The HTML files are loaded by PhantomJS and JavaScript is executed.
- Used stylesheets are extracted from the resulting HTML.
- The stylesheets are concatenated and the rules are parsed by css-parse.
document.querySelectorfilters out selectors that are not found in the HTML files.- The remaining rules are converted back to CSS.
