Support Project Alchira
Alchira began as a simple npm package to learn publishing—a CSS class purge library—but evolved into a distinct tool over the past year (started December 2024). Originally named XCSS for its CSS focus, it expanded into Xtatix, then Alchira, affectionately called "Al."
As a designer-driven project, Alchira prioritizes an intuitive mental model: features were often removed to enforce simplicity, with syntax standardizing best practices for maximum impact without complexity.
This bootstrapped solo effort welcomes contributions of any size to sustain development and maintenance.
For XCSS's future development, setting up a more reliable infrastructure and team is essential to support sustainable growth, quality, and scalability.
