postcss-media-query-optimizer v1.0.1

postcss-media-query-optimizer

A postcss plugin that will optimize your media queries.

Features

• Removes @media (max-width: 0) {} blocks
• Removes max < min: @media (min-width: 400px) and (max-width: 320px) {}
• Simplifies @media (min-width: 400px) and (min-width: 320px) {} to @media (min-width: 400px) {} (You probably don’t write this kind of code but for us it came from Mixin usage in SASS. Also, this solves an IE11 issue that uses the last *-width if multiple *-width’s exist).
• Simplifies @media (min-width: 0) {} to @media all {}
• Simplifies @media (min-width: 0) and (max-width: 400px) {} to @media (max-width: 400px) {}

Limitations

• Only supports em and px units in media queries (for now).
• Future TODO: Does not yet optimize across comma separated (OR) expressions. Would be better if (min-width: 20em), (min-width: 30em) would simplify to (min-width: 20em).

Credits

• This plugin borrows heavily from postcss-media-minmax.
• Uhh, a thing I found after I made this that performs a similar task: postcss-mq-optimize
