📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughCSS minification now applies additional value and selector rewrites, declaration folds, and declaration ordering. It can emit a UTF-8 charset declaration for non-ASCII stylesheet output. Comment extraction and rule-removal behavior also changed. ChangesCSS Minification

- Around line 13724-13755: Update _GRADIENT_AMOUNT_RE so _gradientArgumentsRead
accepts only unitless numbers, percentages, and amounts using units known to be
supported by every engine reading these gradients; reject unrecognized or newer
units so older targets retain their fallback declarations.
- Around line 13328-13338: Update the zeroUnitKeepingProperties configuration
used by the flex shorthand printer to include flex and -webkit-flex, preserving
zero units when shortened flex values are printed.
Review comments at @lib/css/syntax-printer.js:
- Around line 4240-4248: Remove the lone-`none` to `0` rewrite in the shorthand
normalization logic guarded by `_styleZeroesWidth`; preserve `none` for border
shorthands so later style declarations retain the correct width. Restore the
corresponding `border:none` and `border-left:none` expectations in the syntax
equivalence fixtures.

Keep zero units in shortened flex values.
The parser can shorten flex:1 1 0px to flex:0px. The printer then converts 0px to 0, which changes the shorthand semantics. Add flex and -webkit-flex to the zero-unit keeping set.

_gradientArgumentsRead accepts any unit, so it can drop the only gradient an older target reads.
_GRADIENT_AMOUNT_RE accepts any identifier as a unit, including cqw, dvh, lh, rlh, cap and ic. For a gradient, _valueReadByTarget checks support only for the function name. It then passes the arguments to this helper.
Example, with a target such as safari 15:
.a { background-image: linear-gradient(red 10vh, blue);
background-image: linear-gradient(red 10dvh, blue) }_valueReadByTargetreturns true for the second declaration._laterWriteWinstherefore marks the first declaration dead.- Safari 15 does not read
dvh, so it drops the second declaration. - Safari 15 then has no
background-image.
The _sameVocabulary guard does not help here, because _valueReadByTarget short-circuits before that check runs. The same happens across rules through _printedWriteIsDead.
Fix: accept only a fixed set of units that every engine reading the gradient also reads, and decline any other unit.
Proposed fix
-// A number, a length, a percentage or an angle.
-const _GRADIENT_AMOUNT_RE = /^[+-]?(?:\d+\.?\d*|\.\d+)(?:[a-z]+|%)?$/i;

border:none → border:0 is not cascade-equivalent.
The comment says a lone none sets every longhand the same way a lone 0 does. That is not true:
border:nonesets everyborder-*-widthtomediumand the style tonone.border:0sets every width to0and the style to its initial value,none.
The computed widths are equal only while the style stays none. A later declaration that sets only the style shows the difference:
.a { border: none }
.a.b { border-style: solid }- Source:
.a.bgets a 3px (medium) solid border. - Output:
.a.bgets a 0px border, so no border shows.
The same applies to border-top, border-left and the other side shorthands. The updated expectations border-left:0 and border:0 in test/specCases/syntaxEquivalence.spectest.js (lines 1651 and 1731) do not catch this. Their probes read a single block, where the style never becomes visible.
Fix: remove this rewrite and restore border:none / border-left:none in those fixtures.
Proposed fix
- // A `none` style computes the width it pairs with to `0`, so the lone `none`
- // sets every longhand to what a lone `0` does.
- if (
- components.length === 1 &&
- equalsLowerCase(components[0], "none") &&
- _styleZeroesWidth(property)
- ) {
- return ["0"];

Review comment at @lib/css/syntax-printer.js around lines 4240 - 4248:
Remove the lone-`none` to `0` rewrite in the shorthand normalization logic
guarded by `_styleZeroesWidth`; preserve `none` for border shorthands so later
style declarations retain the correct width. Restore the corresponding
`border:none` and `border-left:none` expectations in the syntax equivalence
fixtures.

…rty family Brings back `reorderDeclarations`, on by default: a rule's declarations print family by family in the order lightningcss prints its handlers in, the properties no family names first where they were written, so blocks setting the same things read alike and compress smaller. Only what no order can decide moves.
…ck the order in each engine Every member of a declaration family now shares one rank, so only whole families move, as in lightningcss: a spec relating two members before mdn-data does moves nothing. The equivalence suite asks each engine which longhands every ranked property sets and fails when the minifier moves one declaration past another setting the same longhand.

… ordering declarations (#22586) #22569 removed `path.atKeyword` while #22513 added a call to it, so minifying any at-rule block holding more than one declaration, such as `@font-face`, threw.

Summary
Split out of #22489, and stacked on it: the base is that PR's branch, so this diff is only the ordering.
The minifier prints a rule's declarations family by family, in the order lightningcss prints its property handlers in. Properties no family names stay first, in the order they were written. Blocks that set the same things then read alike, so gzip and brotli find longer matches. A declaration moves only where its order can't change what is read: two spellings of one property, a shorthand and its longhands, two shorthands sharing a longhand, and a flow-relative side next to a physical one all keep their order. The new
optimization.minimize.css.reorderDeclarationsoption is on by default.72 real-world stylesheets, modern browserslist target,
rewriteCustomProperties: true:46 sheets get smaller with gzip and 23 larger, from Semi Design −963 B to Ant Design +210 B.
