On: Simple.css – A classless CSS framework

But if you have a cache hit for minified bootstrap css, which is very likely after a little bit of surfing, then it's 0kb data compared to 4kb.

It's a bit like shared libraries in linux, you might just use the library that almost everyone has installed or you compile a static binary, both solutions have their pros and cons.

This is no longer the case since cache partitioning was released: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2020/10/http-cache...

Cache keys are now tuples of (host, resource) so if you download and cache bootstrap.js on example.com, and then go to bootstrapsite.com which hosts the same JS file, you'll have to download it again because the cache keys are different:

    example.com -> bootstrap.js -> cached as (example.com, bootstrap.js)
    bootstrapsite.com -> bootstrap.js -> cached as (bootstrapsite.com, bootstrap.js)

    (example.com, bootstrap.js) ≠ (bootstrapsite.com, bootstrap.js)
