Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'minify' ↓

Warnings

deprecated CSSOptions.KeepCSS2 has been removed in v2.24.8; use CSSOptions.Version=2 instead. ↓

fix Replace 'KeepCSS2=True' with 'Version=2' in CSSOptions.

gotcha The module name uses underscore: 'tdewolff_minify', not 'tdewolff-minify'. ↓

fix Use 'pip install tdewolff-minify' for installation, but 'from tdewolff_minify import ...' in code.

breaking SVG options changed: SVG.Inline is now private; use CSSOptions for inline SVG. ↓

fix Set CSSOptions.KeepInlineSVG=True instead of using SVG.Inline.
