Nodejs is a JavaScript engine - there's nothing magically about that language being better for manipulating web-oriented structures - not even juggling Javascript code. As I understand it, a language like Haskell is a far better technical foundation for parsing, juggling and serializing JavaScript than JavaScript itself. ...but a JavaScript programmer happens to have implemented in JavaScript a minifier for JavaScript that proves quite efficient and quite reliable. Great. ...but that says nothing about the quality of another implementation of a minifier for another language (CSS) - even though implementation platform happens to be the same (JavaSCript). I recommend Sass because some of the finest CSS coders use it and implement plugins for it (see package ruby-compass and its reverse dependencies). I have come by cssmin before, but found no urge to package it yet.
