![]() I suggest you click on single files in your main window and choose the options you prefer for each one I got stuff set there, but opening a new project won’t keep that options. Setting default overall options from the top right menu won’t work for me. I won’t go deep in this because the docs section on the official website explains everything and is pretty straight forward. Prepros does great on JS too! It automatically minifies and concatenates your js files into ONE if you want, and is intelligent enough to ignore the already minified js in your folders. But still, you have a quick tool to fairly optimize your pngs, and it does gifs and jpgs too! What about JS? I optimized the same PNG file with Prepros and (see my previous post for more info) and well, wins. ![]() I’ve done a quick test on image optimization and the compression is quite OK. Clicking on the photo icon, Prepros will recognize all the images of your project and will losslessly optimize it! One great other feature I love about this software is the image optimization engine. You can also select your output folders in the second tab and the third tab as an interesting filter option that allows you to exclude certain files from the project based on comma-separated names. You can see the live refresh in action using the Prepros debug engine clicking on the globe icon. Once the files are compiled, your browser will automatically refresh so you can see the changes without hitting f5, or f9, or ctrl+f5, or ctrl+r like a mad man. One GREAT feature Prepros has is the live refresh option. You can specify a number of options that are strictly related to the current project you’re working in, you can view the option window clicking the gear icon on the bottom left-menu (that’s your project related menu) ![]() You can download the sample project I used for this demo clicking here! Once you’re done, Prepros will scan your uploaded folder and put your to-be-processed files in the main window Now set-up your first project dragging and dropping the folder into the window or clicking the PLUS button on the top right menu. Getting Startedĭownload the software at, install and open it. In this post i will highlight the features I think are the most interesting. And it compiles HAML too! Gettingstarted is easy and the official documentation is pretty complete, i’ve learnt how to use the software lightning-fast reading the docs section of the website. No more command line non-sense with Prepros! YAY! One thing i love about Prepros is how easy it is: just add a project, specify where your sass, js and html files are and you are good to go, Prepros will compile the rest.
