PostCSS plugin to parse CSS and add vendor prefixes to CSS rules using values from Can I Use. It is recommended by Google and used in Twitter and Taobao.
Write your CSS rules without vendor prefixes (in fact, forget about them entirely):
:fullscreen a {
display: flex;
}
Autoprefixer will use the data based on current browser popularity and property support to apply prefixes for you. You can try the interactive demo of Autoprefixer.
:-webkit-full-screen a {
display: -webkit-box;
display: flex;
}
:-moz-full-screen a {
display: flex;
}
:-ms-fullscreen a {
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex;
}
:fullscreen a {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex;
}
Twitter account for news and releases: @autoprefixer.
Working with Autoprefixer is simple: just forget about vendor prefixes and write normal CSS according to the latest W3C specs. You don’t need a special language (like Sass) or remember where you must use mixins.
Autoprefixer supports selectors (like :fullscreen
and ::selection
),
unit function (calc()
), at‑rules (@supports
and @keyframes
)
and properties.
Because Autoprefixer is a postprocessor for CSS, you can also use it with preprocessors such as Sass, Stylus or LESS.
Just write normal CSS according to the latest W3C specs and Autoprefixer will produce the code for old browsers.
a {
display: flex;
}
compiles to:
a {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex;
}
Autoprefixer has 27 special hacks to fix web browser differences.
Autoprefixer utilizes the most recent data from Can I Use to add only necessary vendor prefixes.
It also removes old, unnecessary prefixes from your CSS
(like border-radius
prefixes, produced by many CSS libraries).
a {
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
compiles to:
a {
border-radius: 5px;
}
Autoprefixer uses Browserslist, so you can specify the browsers
you want to target in your project by queries like last 2 versions
or > 5%
.
The best way to provide browsers is .browserslistrc
config
or package.json
with browserslist
key. Put it in your project root.
We recommend to avoid Autoprefixer option and use .browserslistrc
config
or package.json
. In this case browsers will be shared with other tools
like babel-preset-env or Stylelint.
See Browserslist docs for queries, browser names, config format, and default value.
By default, Autoprefixer also removes outdated prefixes.
You can disable this behavior with the remove: false
option. If you have
no legacy code, this option will make Autoprefixer about 10% faster.
Also, you can set the add: false
option. Autoprefixer will only clean outdated
prefixes, but will not add any new prefixes.
Autoprefixer adds new prefixes between any unprefixed properties and already written prefixes in your CSS. If it will break the expected prefixes order, you can clean all prefixes from your CSS and then add the necessary prefixes again:
var cleaner = postcss([ autoprefixer({ add: false, browsers: [] }) ]);
var prefixer = postcss([ autoprefixer ]);
cleaner.process(css).then(function (cleaned) {
return prefixer.process(cleaned.css);
}).then(function (result) {
console.log(result.css);
});
Many other tools contain Autoprefixer. For example, webpack uses Autoprefixer to minify CSS by cleaning unnecessary prefixes.
If you set browsers list to Autoprefixer by browsers
option, only first
Autoprefixer will know your browsers. Autoprefixer inside webpack will use
default browsers list. As result, webpack will remove prefixes, that first
Autoprefixer added.
You need to put your browsers to browserslist
config in project root —
as result all tools (Autoprefixer, cssnano, doiuse, cssnext) will use same
browsers list.
-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio
?@media (min-resolution: 2dppx) {
.image {
background-image: url(image@2x.png);
}
}
Will be compiled to:
@media (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
(-o-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2/1),
(min-resolution: 2dppx) {
.image {
background-image: url(image@2x.png);
}
}
No. Autoprefixer only adds prefixes.
Most new CSS features will require client side JavaScript to handle a new behavior correctly.
Depending on what you consider to be a “polyfill”, you can take a look at some other tools and libraries. If you are just looking for syntax sugar, you might take a look at:
border-radius
?Developers are often surprised by how few prefixes are required today. If Autoprefixer doesn’t add prefixes to your CSS, check if they’re still required on Can I Use.
There is a list with all supported properties, values, and selectors.
@-webkit-keyframes
?Browser teams can remove some prefixes before others. So we try to use all combinations of prefixed/unprefixed values.
-webkit-
only code?Autoprefixer needs unprefixed property to add prefixes. So if you only
wrote -webkit-gradient
without W3C’s gradient
,
Autoprefixer will not add other prefixes.
But PostCSS has a plugins to convert CSS to unprefixed state. Use postcss-unprefix before Autoprefixer.
-epub-
prefix?No, Autoprefixer works only with browsers prefixes from Can I Use. But you can use postcss-epub for prefixing ePub3 properties.
system-ui
?system-ui
is technically not a prefix and the transformation is not future-proof. But you can use postcss-font-family-system-ui to transform system-ui
to a practical font-family list.
In Gulp you can use gulp-postcss with autoprefixer
npm package.
gulp.task('autoprefixer', function () {
var postcss = require('gulp-postcss');
var sourcemaps = require('gulp-sourcemaps');
var autoprefixer = require('autoprefixer');
return gulp.src('./src/*.css')
.pipe(sourcemaps.init())
.pipe(postcss([ autoprefixer() ]))
.pipe(sourcemaps.write('.'))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./dest'));
});
With gulp-postcss
you also can combine Autoprefixer
with other PostCSS plugins.
In webpack you can use postcss-loader with autoprefixer
and other PostCSS plugins.
module.exports = {
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: ["style-loader", "css-loader", "postcss-loader"]
}
]
}
}
And create a postcss.config.js
with:
module.exports = {
plugins: [
require('autoprefixer')
]
}
In Grunt you can use grunt-postcss with autoprefixer
npm package.
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-postcss');
grunt.initConfig({
postcss: {
options: {
map: true,
processors: [
require('autoprefixer')
]
},
dist: {
src: 'css/*.css'
}
}
});
grunt.registerTask('default', ['postcss:dist']);
};
With grunt-postcss
you also can combine Autoprefixer
with other PostCSS plugins.
autoprefixer-rails
and jekyll-assets
to Gemfile
autoprefixer
npm package and enable it:
environment.enable('autoprefixer')
There is postcss-js to use Autoprefixer in React Inline Styles, Free Style, Radium and other CSS-in-JS solutions.
let prefixer = postcssJs.sync([ autoprefixer ]);
let style = prefixer({
display: 'flex'
});
You can use the postcss-cli to run Autoprefixer from CLI:
npm install postcss-cli autoprefixer
npx postcss *.css --use autoprefixer -d build/
See postcss -h
for help.
You can use Autoprefixer with PostCSS in your Node.js application or if you want to develop an Autoprefixer plugin for new environment.
var autoprefixer = require('autoprefixer');
var postcss = require('postcss');
postcss([ autoprefixer ]).process(css).then(function (result) {
result.warnings().forEach(function (warn) {
console.warn(warn.toString());
});
console.log(result.css);
});
There is also standalone build for the browser or as a non-Node.js runtime.
You can use html-autoprefixer to process HTML with inlined CSS.
Autoprefixer should be used in assets build tools. Text editor plugins are not a good solution, because prefixes decrease code readability and you will need to change value in all prefixed properties.
I recommend you to learn how to use build tools like Gulp. They work much better and will open you a whole new world of useful plugins and automatization.
But, if you can’t move to a build tool, you can use text editor plugins:
Autoprefixer uses the PostCSS warning API to warn about really important problems in your CSS:
display: box
instead of display: flex
by latest specification version.You can get warnings from result.warnings()
:
result.warnings().forEach(function (warn) {
console.warn(warn.toString());
});
Every Autoprefixer runner should display this warnings.
Autoprefixer was designed to have no interface – it just works. If you need some browser specific hack just write a prefixed property after the unprefixed one.
a {
transform: scale(0.5);
-moz-transform: scale(0.6);
}
If some prefixes were generated in a wrong way, please create an issue on GitHub.
There are 4 plugin’s options to disable some Autoprefixer features.
supports: false
will disable @supports
parameters prefixing.flexbox: false
will disable flexbox properties prefixing.
Or flexbox: "no-2009"
will add prefixes only for final and IE
versions of specification.remove: false
will disable cleaning outdated prefixes.You shoud set them to the plugin:
autoprefixer({ grid: true });
If you do not need Autoprefixer in some part of your CSS, you can use control comments to disable Autoprefixer.
a {
transition: 1s; /* it will be prefixed */
}
b {
/* autoprefixer: off */
transition: 1s; /* it will not be prefixed */
}
Control comments disable Autoprefixer within the whole rule in which
you place it. In the above example, Autoprefixer will be disabled
in the entire b
rule scope, not only after the comment.
You can also use comments recursively:
/* autoprefixer: off */
@supports (transition: all) {
/* autoprefixer: on */
a {
/* autoprefixer: off */
}
}
In Sass/SCSS you can use all the disable options above, add an exclamation mark
in the start of comment: /*! autoprefixer: off */
.
Function autoprefixer(options)
returns new PostCSS plugin.
See PostCSS API for plugin usage documentation.
autoprefixer({ cascade: false })
There are 8 options:
browsers
(array): list of browsers query (like last 2 versions
),
which are supported in your project. We recommend to use browserslist
config or browserslist
key in package.json
, rather than this option
to share browsers with other tools. See Browserslist docs for available
queries and default value.env
(string): environment for Browserslist.cascade
(boolean): should Autoprefixer use Visual Cascade,
if CSS is uncompressed. Default: true
add
(boolean): should Autoprefixer add prefixes. Default is true
.remove
(boolean): should Autoprefixer [remove outdated] prefixes.
Default is true
.supports
(boolean): should Autoprefixer add prefixes for @supports
parameters. Default is true
.flexbox
(boolean|string): should Autoprefixer add prefixes for flexbox
properties. With "no-2009"
value Autoprefixer will add prefixes only
for final and IE versions of specification. Default is true
.grid
(boolean): should Autoprefixer add IE prefixes for Grid Layout
properties. Default is false
.stats
(object): custom usage statistics for > 10% in my stats
browsers query.Plugin object has info()
method for debugging purpose.
You can use PostCSS processor to process several CSS files to increase performance.
Run npx autoprefixer-info --package autoprefixer
in your project directory to check
which browsers are selected and which properties will be prefixed:
$ npx autoprefixer-info --package autoprefixer
Browsers:
Edge: 16
These browsers account for 0.04% of all users globally
At-Rules:
@viewport: ms
Selectors:
::placeholder: ms
