CSS-Checker: Find and Reduce Similar and Duplicated CSS Scripts

If I understand this correctly, it is similar to Parcel's bundler/minifier: https://css-tricks.com/parcel-css/

Except that Parcel is a parser, deduper, transformer [autoprefixer, future-CSS-to-current-convertor] and minifier.

And that, in turn, is based on CSSNano [although it is a complete rewrite in Rust], IIRC.

Can someone confirm that I understand correctly, and if so, how does this compare to Parcel? To CSSNano or PurgeCSS?

There are a number of things that PurgeCSS can't safely remove, so this tool looks like it is intended for code review.

Exactly. CSS-Checker is to check and show the similar classes for programmers to read
