{"library":"beasties","type":"library","category":null,"description":"Beasties is a Webpack/Vite plugin that inlines critical CSS and lazy-loads the rest for improved initial paint time. Version 0.4.2 (as of 2025) is a maintained fork of GoogleChromeLabs/critters, actively developed by the Nuxt/Vue ecosystem. Unlike alternatives using headless browsers, Beasties is lightweight and fast by parsing HTML/CSS directly. It supports preloading fonts, pruning unused CSS, and integrates via beasties-webpack-plugin or vite-plugin-beasties. Requires Node >=18.0.0 and ships TypeScript types.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"0.4.2","tags":["javascript","critical css","inline css","critical","beasties","webpack plugin","performance","typescript"],"last_verified":"Sun Jun 07","install":[{"cmd":"npm install beasties","imports":["import Beasties from 'beasties'","const Beasties = require('beasties').default","const BeastiesPlugin = require('beasties-webpack-plugin')"]},{"cmd":"yarn add beasties","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add beasties","imports":[]}],"homepage":"https://github.com/danielroe/beasties#readme","github":"https://github.com/danielroe/beasties","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"beasties","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":null}
