Crawl your website and find unused CSS

High Quality
Animaticons provides high-quality animations that can be used across various platforms without loss in clarity.
File Size Efficiency
The animations are lightweight, ensuring quick load times and reduced strain on website bandwidth.
Scalability
Icons are vector-based, allowing them to scale perfectly without losing resolution.
Ease of Use
The platform offers simple integration with straightforward CSS, making it user-friendly for developers.
Cross-browser Compatibility
Animations are compatible with all modern browsers, ensuring a consistent experience for all users.

Limited Customization
Pre-made animations might not provide enough customization options for highly tailored user experiences.
Subscription Cost
Access to the full library requires a subscription, which might be a barrier for small projects or businesses with limited budgets.
Dependency on External Service
Using Animaticons requires relying on an external service, which may affect performance or availability if there are service issues.
Learning Curve
For those unfamiliar with integrating CSS animations, there might be a slight learning curve involved initially.

Efficiency
Identifies unused CSS, resulting in cleaner and more efficient code. This can lead to improved page load times and reduced bandwidth usage.
Ease of Use
Provides a straightforward interface that allows users to quickly scan their websites and find unnecessary CSS without needing extensive technical knowledge.
Cost Savings
By eliminating unused CSS, it reduces the amount of data that needs to be transmitted and stored, potentially saving on hosting and bandwidth costs.
Improved Maintenance
With a reduction in CSS file size, future maintenance becomes easier and more manageable, making it simpler to update or refactor code.

False Positives
May incorrectly identify CSS as unused if the tool does not recognize dynamic changes or conditional loading, which can lead to accidental removal of necessary styles.
Dependency on External Tool
Relying on an external tool could present privacy and security concerns, especially when sharing potentially sensitive code and styling information.
Manual Verification
Requires manual verification of results to ensure important styles are not removed, which can be time-consuming and somewhat negate the tool's time savings.
Incompatibility with Complex Frameworks
Might not effectively handle complex CSS frameworks or preprocessors, where styles are used indirectly or dynamically through Javascript or server-side frameworks.
