Des­de ha­ce unos mi­nu­to­s, el co­man­do "ins­ta­ll_­the­me" de Niko­la gi­thub mas­ter saca los te­mas de http://­the­me­s.­niko­la.­ral­si­na.­me

Así que de gol­pe, en vez de 2 te­mas pa­ra ba­ja­r, hay 65 (aun­que la ma­yo­ría son va­ria­cio­nes via bootswa­tch de 2 te­ma­s, jin­ja-­de­fault es iden­ti­co a de­faul­t, y or­phan no sir­ve pa­ra na­da ;-)

¡Y aho­ra po­dés con­tri­buir te­ma­s! ¿Có­mo?

1. Da­­me un pu­­ll re­­quest en http­s://­­gi­­thu­­b.­­co­­­m/­­ra­l­­si­­na/­­niko­­­la-­­the­­mes

   Po­­­né tu te­­ma en the­­me­s/ y man­­dá el pu­­ll re­­quest

2. Man­­dá­­me un zip de tu te­­ma y yo lo agre­­go

Los te­mas con­tri­bui­dos van a tar­dar un ra­to en apa­re­cer por­que hay que re­vi­sar­los pa­ra sa­ber que no tie­nen có­di­go ma­li­cio­so, pe­ro los voy a pro­ce­s­ar, len­to pe­ro se­gu­ro. Si ya me man­das­te un te­ma y nun­ca lo pu­se en nin­gún la­do, te pi­do dis­cul­pas y que en­cuen­tres las ga­nas de in­ten­tar de nue­vo :-)

El si­tio de te­mas en sí no es exac­ta­men­te her­mo­so, pe­ro es fun­cio­na­l, y po­dés ba­jar los te­mas de ahí, ver si­tios de de­mo pa­ra ca­da te­ma, y has­ta hay screens­ho­ts au­to­ge­ne­ra­dos (que la­men­ta­ble­men­te no mues­tran los we­bfon­ts)

Des­de ha­ce mu­cho me mo­les­ta la canti­dad de co­sas que se en­chu­fan a la no­te­book cuan­do la quie­ro usar en mi es­cri­to­rio. Des­pués de pen­sar­lo un po­co, con­se­guí re­du­cir­lo a dos ca­bles pa­ra en­chu­far to­das las co­sas.

¿Có­mo es­tá he­cho?

I had this is­sue open in the bug tra­cker for Niko­la (my sta­tic si­te ge­ne­ra­to­r) for a long ti­me: "A­dd min­css su­ppor­t".

We­ll, no, it does­n't ha­ve it ye­t, but I did so­me re­sear­ch on whe­ther it would be wor­th addin­g. And bo­y, min­css im­press­ed the he­ck out of me.

You see, Niko­la's the­mes tend to use una­dul­te­red boots­tra­p, whi­ch means they ca­rry a lar­ge num­ber of things that are not us­ed in their CSS. Be­si­des, it uses se­ve­ral sty­les­hee­ts from do­cu­til­s, pyg­men­ts, and mo­re.

What min­css does is exa­mi­ne your HT­ML and your CSS, and re­mo­ve all the unu­s­ed CSS. So, I wro­te a script that exa­mi­nes the Niko­la ou­tput and ove­rw­ri­tes the CSS fi­les wi­th the mi­ni­mal things that are ac­tua­lly nee­ded the­re.

And the re­sul­t?

He­re is the be­fo­re/a­fter for ea­ch CSS fi­le in Niko­la's de­mo si­te:

bootstrap-responsive.min.css  16849  3251
bootstrap.min.css            106059 14737
code.css                       3670  2114
colorbox.css                   6457   774
rst.css                        6559  2581
theme.css                      1287  1061
-----------------------------------------
                             140881 24518

But wai­t, Niko­la su­ppor­ts bund­ling all tho­se fi­les in­to a sin­gle lar­ge CSS fi­le to avoid ne­two­rk re­ques­ts (u­sing we­ba­sse­ts). Does it wo­rk in that ca­se too?

We­ll ye­s:

all-nocdn.css                167457 29496

But that is not all. The min­css fi­les are not mi­ni­fie­d. Pa­s­sing all-­no­cd­n.­css th­rou­gh Yui-­com­pres­sor sh­ri­nks it fur­ther to 20599 by­tes. Whi­ch, gzi­ppe­d, is a pal­try 4801 by­tes. That means the com­ple­te sty­ling of the who­le si­te is a sin­gle CSS fi­le le­ss than 5KB in si­ze.

Tha­t, is im­pres­si­ve.
