Not sure which CSS selectors you still need and which ones you can throw away? Obsessed about site optimization?

Introducing the CSS Redundancy Checker

Built by Mike Malone, this awesome tool will first scan your CSS file and take note of all the selectors.

Next, it will scan your site and see which selectors are used and which aren’t, thus easily tracking down those elusive CSS rules that you aren’t using anymore.

This is particularly helpful when finishing big projects. Personally, my stylesheets go through much reiteration before finally going live. This tool will help me roll out clean and optimized CSS. And as we all know, optimization is key on production of any scale.

Without further ado, I present you the CSS Redundancy Checker.

First and foremost, please stay! According to Reinvigorate about 90% of you come and leave without going deeper than the frontpage. That’s too bad.

I would love to hear your feedback about the design. Because I’m a design freak, every pixel must make sense, so your feedback will go a long way.

A bit about this site

Youtilize.com is a blog currently written only by Dimitry, a 21 year old Front-End Engineer by profession and entrepreneur by heart. He’s a recent graduate with a Finance degree under his belt and enjoys sharing his knowledge with the public.

Youtilize theme for WordPress

As planned in the past, this look before your eyes will be ported from this custom-coded blog to a more popular WordPress blogging engine for public use.

I’ve gotten some requests to create a theme based on the Youtilize design and think it’s a great idea.

So if you’re interested, please check back periodically or pick up the RSS feed.

We’re featured on the following awesome galleries:

Thanks to all the kind words and mentions!
