PostCSS is a tool for transforming styles with JS plugins.
These plugins can support variables and mixins, transpile future CSS syntax,
inline images, and more.

PostCSS is used by industry leaders including Google, Twitter, Alibaba,
and Shopify. The [Autoprefixer] PostCSS plugin is one of the most popular
CSS processors.

PostCSS can do the same work as preprocessors like Sass, Less, and Stylus.
But PostCSS is modular, 3-30 times faster, and much more powerful.

## What is PostCSS

PostCSS itself is very small. It includes only a CSS parser,
a CSS node tree API, a source map generator, and a node tree stringifier.

All of the style transformations are performed by plugins, which are
plain JS functions. Each plugin receives a CSS node tree, transforms it & then
returns the modified tree.

You can use the [cssnext] plugin pack and write future CSS code right now:

```css
:root {
    --mainColor: #ffbbaaff;
}
@custom-media    --mobile (width <= 640px);
@custom-selector --heading h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6;

.post-article :--heading {
    color: color( var(--mainColor) blackness(+20%) );
}
@media (--mobile) {
    .post-article :--heading {
        margin-top: 0;
    }
}
```

Or if you like the Sass syntax, you could use the [PreCSS] plugin pack:

```css
@define-mixin social-icon $network $color {
    &.is-$network {
        background: $color;
    }
}

.social-icon {
    @mixin social-icon twitter  #55acee;
    @mixin social-icon facebook #3b5998;

    padding: 10px 5px;
    @media (max-width: 640px) {
        padding: 0;
    }
}
```

## Features

Preprocessors are template languages, where you mix styles with code
(like PHP does with HTML).

In contrast, in PostCSS you write a custom subset of CSS.
All code can only be in JS plugins.

As a result, PostCSS offers three main benefits:

* **Performance:** PostCSS, written in JS, is [3 times faster] than libsass,
  which is written in C++.
* **Future CSS:** PostCSS plugins can read and rebuild an entire document,
  meaning that they can provide new language features. For example, [cssnext]
  transpiles the latest W3C drafts to current CSS syntax.
* **New abilities:** PostCSS plugins can read and change every part of styles.
  It makes many new classes of tools possible. [Autoprefixer], [`rtlcss`],
  [`doiuse`] or [`postcss-colorblind`] are good examples.

[3 times faster]: https://github.com/postcss/benchmark

## Usage

Start using PostCSS in just two steps:

1. Add PostCSS to your build tool.
2. Select plugins from the list below and add them to your PostCSS process.

There are plugins for [Grunt], [Gulp], [webpack], [Broccoli],
[Brunch] and [ENB].

```js
gulp.task('css', function () {
    var postcss = require('gulp-postcss');
    return gulp.src('src/**/*.css')
        .pipe( postcss([ require('cssnext')(), require('cssnano')() ]) )
        .pipe( gulp.dest('build/') );
});
```

You can also use PostCSS plugins with Stylus by using [poststylus].

For other environments, you can use the [CLI tool] or the JS API:

```js
var postcss = require('postcss');
postcss([ require('cssnext')(), require('cssnano')() ])
    .process(css, { from: 'src/app.css', to: 'app.css' })
    .then(function (result) {
        fs.writeFileSync('app.css', result.css);
        if ( result.map ) fs.writeFileSync('app.css.map', result.map);
    });
```

If you want to run PostCSS on node.js 0.10, add [Promise polyfill]:

```js
require('es6-promise').polyfill();
var postcss = require('postcss');
```

Read the [PostCSS API] for more details about the JS API.

## Custom Syntaxes

PostCSS can transforms styles in any syntax, not only in CSS.
There are 3 special arguments in `process()` method to control syntax.
You can even separately set input parser and output stringifier.

* `syntax` accepts object with `parse` and `stringify` functions.
* `parser` accepts input parser function.
* `stringifier` accepts output stringifier function.

```js
var safe = require('postcss-safe-parser');
postcss(plugins).process('a {', { parser: safe }).then(function (result) {
    result.css //=> 'a {}'
});
```

### Syntaxes

* [`postcss-scss`] to work with SCSS *(but does not compile SCSS to CSS)*.

[`postcss-scss`]: https://github.com/postcss/postcss-scss

### Parsers

* [`postcss-safe-parser`] finds and fix CSS syntax errors.

[`postcss-safe-parser`]: https://github.com/postcss/postcss-safe-parser

## Plugins

Go to [postcss.parts] for a searchable catalog of the plugins mentioned below.

[postcss.parts]: http://postcss.parts

### Control

There are two ways to make PostCSS magic more explicit.

Limit a plugin's local stylesheet context using [`postcss-plugin-context`]:

```css
.css-example.is-test-for-css4-browsers {
    color: gray(255, 50%);
}
@context cssnext {
    .css-example.is-fallback-for-all-browsers {
        color: gray(255, 50%);
    }
}
```

Or enable plugins directly in CSS using [`postcss-use`]:

```css
@use autoprefixer(browsers: ['last 2 versions']);

:fullscreen a {
    display: flex
}
```

## Options

### Source Map

PostCSS has great [source maps] support. It can read and interpret maps
from previous transformation steps, autodetect the format that you expect,
and output both external and inline maps.

To ensure that you generate an accurate source map, you must indicate the input
and output CSS file paths — using the options `from` and `to`, respectively.

To generate a new source map with the default options, simply set `map: true`.
This will generate an inline source map that contains the source content.
If you don’t want the map inlined, you can set `map.inline: false`.

```js
processor
    .process(css, {
        from: 'app.sass.css',
        to:   'app.css',
        map: { inline: false },
    })
    .then(function (result) {
        result.map //=> '{ "version":3,
                   //      "file":"app.css",
                   //      "sources":["app.sass"],
                   //       "mappings":"AAAA,KAAI" }'
    });
```

If PostCSS finds source maps from a previous transformation,
it will automatically update that source map with the same options.

If you want more control over source map generation, you can define the `map`
option as an object with the following parameters:

* `inline` boolean: indicates that the source map should be embedded
  in the output CSS as a Base64-encoded comment. By default, it is `true`.
  But if all previous maps are external, not inline, PostCSS will not embed
  the map even if you do not set this option.

  If you have an inline source map, the `result.map` property will be empty,
  as the source map will be contained within the text of `result.css`.

* `prev` string, object or boolean: source map content from
  a previous processing step (for example, Sass compilation).
  PostCSS will try to read the previous source map automatically
  (based on comments within the source CSS), but you can use this option
  to identify it manually. If desired, you can omit the previous map
  with `prev: false`.

* `sourcesContent` boolean: indicates that PostCSS should set the origin
  content (for example, Sass source) of the source map. By default,
  it is `true`. But if all previous maps do not contain sources content,
  PostCSS will also leave it out even if you do not set this option.

* `annotation` boolean or string: indicates that PostCSS should add annotation
  comments to the CSS. By default, PostCSS will always add a comment with a path
  to the source map. PostCSS will not add annotations to CSS files that
  do not contain any comments.

  By default, PostCSS presumes that you want to save the source map as
  `opts.to + '.map'` and will use this path in the annotation comment.
  A different path can be set by providing a string value for `annotation`.

  If you have set `inline: true`, annotation cannot be disabled.
