Identify useless CSS rules Projects grow and evolve and some rules become useless. Removing dead CSS code is not as easy as dead HTML or dead JS. etherpad: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/sudweb-devtools-progress original email: http://markmail.org/thread/qfwfxryspiwzfad3#query:+page:1+mid:qfwfxryspiwzfad3+state:results

Taras recently wrote up some prototype code we hope to include as a GCLI command. Might be useful for this. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=834865

From bug 898624: (In reply to Ben Kelly [:bkelly] from comment #0) > Currently the devtools inspector allows us to see rules applied to a single > element at a single moment in time. For dynamic pages, like b2g apps, it > would be nice to be able to see rules as they change over time. > > Possible use cases: > > 1) Determine the minimal set of CSS rules used within an app. For example, > many b2g apps pull in largish blocks of CSS from our building blocks, but > may only use a small subset of the styles. > 2) Visualize style changes over time to identify potential performance > issues during transitions and other user operations. > > This could possibly be hacked up as a simple logging facility at first. A > longer term tool might look something like: > > 1) Press "style record" button. > 2) Perform operations on page. > 3) Press "record complete" button. > 4) Tool shows a timeline with vertical marks indicating style changes. (It > would be nice if this was overlayed on top of other information like > touch/mouse events for context.) > 5) Click on a style change marker in the timeline to inspect the rules that > were removed and added. > 6) Tool also shows a list of rules that were used at least once during the > record period. > > This is similar in purpose, but perhaps a bit different to bug 898624 and > bug 834865.
