Around May I posted a critical CSS generator and it got some attention. I found a word-for-word copy that performs better in Google but has worse results IMO, recently received an email of a person who uses the tool often asking if the tool was being used to train AI and even shared the repo with some people that asked me.

Anyway, this tool appeared to be useful for many people so I moved it to my main site and made it work with Frontend Frameworks and inline CSS, so should work for everyone now.

Nice post about backdrop filter! I did change the trigger for the scroll so glad it works

I will take that into account, what you write makes sense! I had actually debated on how to handle the loader and prioritized UI over experience and just showing the content ASAP and yes, external resources have given me headaches, I appreciate your response, thanks again!

I used it on a pure html, js and css static site with bootstrap, it was useful there to me

not really, I think it just wasn't able to read a css file, I saw some other comments, will check this error, maybe give me visual feedback to the user

Hey Chris! you're talking about kigo.studio, right? can you tell me which version of firefox you are using? I tested it on my mac firefox 135.0.1 (aarch64) and it works fine

I don't mess with the scroll, well, I do disable it before the video is loaded but I'd still love to hear your comments, would be really useful

hehe I didn't use this tool for Kigo's site since I built it from scratch, the loader is used because of the BG videos, I wanted the videos to load completely before showing the page, do you think there is a better approach? def would be really cool to read some advice

Yes, this is for specific use cases, I don't have a use for this for sites where I coded everything myself, this has been useful for static sites where I downloaded a template that uses libraries, probably useful for people with similar cases

Will check this case, thanks!

Yes, for first view page and it is a trade off, best approach is writing all the styles and code yourself, not use libraries, etc.

hehe, I know... I should think about that, I got tons of visits but unsure this is worthwhile since it appears it's not that useful for most people?

Yeap, I had to change some styles after applying this but managed to get CLS to 0 for the websites, I know this isn't useful for everyone but it was really useful for me as I have been using templates for clients with limited budgets that have tons of libraries, I'm sure there are other use cases where this is useful
