Jekyll is a great tool for building static sites, however, I often see many projects that are including a lot of unused CSS. Since Jekyll generates an entire working site in the _site directory, we can use it to run uncss. Below outlines an example project using uncss and a build.js script.

Note: this assumes you have node and npm installed.

Setting up the project

Firstly, let's set up the project.

jekyll new uncss-example && cd uncss-example

# for redirecting hhtp traffic to https version of the site
server {
  listen 80;
  server_name example.com;
  return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

# for redirecting to non-www version of the site
server {
    listen  80;

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
