Css: How to Combine Multiple Stylesheets into One

Concatenate multiple CSS files into one

As long as the ordering of the arguments for cat matches the original ordering of the three referenced CSS files in the HTML file the cat-method should work as expected.

So given say ..

<link href="css/one.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all">
<link href="css/two.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all">
<link href="css/three.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all">

.. the following concaternation ..

cat css/one.css css/two.css css/three.css > css/all.css

.. together will the following reference ..

<link href="css/all.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all">

.. should be 100 % identical.

combine multiple css styles into one

In bootstrap 4, the css for .alert is

.alert {
position: relative;
padding: 0.75rem 1.25rem;
margin-bottom: 1rem;
border: 1px solid transparent;
border-radius: 0.25rem;
}

and for .alert-secondary

.alert-secondary {
color: #464a4e;
background-color: #e7e8ea;
border-color: #dddfe2;
}

So to combine them, use:

.login-alert-combined{
font-family: 'Kavivanar', cursive;
position: relative;
padding: 0.75rem 1.25rem;
margin-bottom: 1rem;
border: 1px solid transparent;
border-radius: 0.25rem;
color: #464a4e;
background-color: #e7e8ea;
border-color: #dddfe2;
}

But I don't see what is wrong with setting class as "alert alert-secondary login-alert" when you want to use all 3 styles.
