Make Your AI App
Render Faster
Chat UIs, code blocks, markdown — AI apps repeat the same styles thousands of times. Classpresso consolidates them at build time for dramatically faster rendering.
Works with Tailwind • Bootstrap • Bulma • Tachyons • UnoCSS • Any utility-first CSS
npm install classpressoLess Classes = Faster Rendering
Every class is work for the browser. Classpresso consolidates repeated patterns so there's less to parse, match, and calculate.
Test Your HTML
Paste your HTML with utility classes to see how much browser work Classpresso can eliminate. Works with Tailwind, Bootstrap, and any utility-first CSS framework.
Built for AI App Performance
The real win isn't smaller files — it's faster rendering. AI apps repeat the same styles thousands of times. Consolidation = faster apps.
50% Faster Style Recalc
Chat bubbles, code blocks, cards — AI apps repeat styles thousands of times. Consolidation cuts browser work in half.
42% Faster First Paint
Users see responses sooner. Consolidated classes parse and render dramatically faster.
Zero Code Changes
Runs on your build output, not your source. Your React/Vue/Svelte components stay untouched.
Any Utility Framework
Tailwind, Bootstrap, Bulma, UnoCSS — if it uses utility classes, Classpresso optimizes it.
Simple CLI
One postbuild command. Works with Next.js, Vite, Webpack, or any build tool.
Zero Runtime Cost
Build-time only. No JavaScript added, no runtime overhead. Just optimized HTML + CSS.
Works with all utility-first CSS frameworks
"Why not just use @apply?"
Great question. Here's what the Tailwind team actually recommends — and where Classpresso fits in.
"I can say with absolute certainty that if I started Tailwind CSS over from scratch, there would be no @apply. The behavior is outrageously complicated, everyone struggles to build the right mental model of what it's supposed to do, and it encourages bad CSS architecture."— Adam Wathan, Creator of Tailwind CSS(Aug 2022)What Tailwind Recommends
Use component abstraction — React, Vue, or Svelte components that encapsulate your UI patterns.
<Button variant="primary">Submit</Button>This solves code maintainability.
What Actually Renders
The browser still sees all 15 utility classes on every element:
class="_cp-h7"Browser work is unchanged.
Different Tools, Different Problems
| Approach | Maintainability | Performance | Automatic | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
@apply CSS directive | Discouraged | |||
Components React/Vue/Svelte | Recommended | |||
Classpresso Build-time optimization | N/A | Complementary |
Use Both. They Solve Different Problems.
Keep using component abstraction for maintainable code. Add Classpresso for faster browser rendering. They're complementary — not competing.
