The Cascade Style Sheet (CSS) file of Podcastpedia.org had grown to over 2000 lines and it had become hard to manage. New CSS elements used to, most likely, go to the end of the file. Something had to be done… Well, CSS does have an import option that lets you split your CSS into smaller, more maintainable portions. The only MAJOR drawback is that each time you use @import
in CSS it creates another HTTP request. In addition to that, this could have prevented style sheets from being downloaded concurrently. So, what to do? Ta-da, CSS preprocessors to the rescue.
