Critical CSS Extraction

GatsbyJS & Linaria extract your stylesheet and inject into the <head> by default. So, you don’t need to worry about the SSR & FOUC.

However, the extracted stylesheet would be huge for large site, because it includes css used by whole pages/components

This plugin provide an option extractCritical that use linaria/server API behind the scene

{
  resolve: 'gatsby-plugin-linaria',
  options: {
    extractCritical: true, // false by default.
  },
}

When you opt-in this feature, only Critical CSS is injected into the <head>.

And loading full CSS will be deferred for later paint or navigations.

See this for more detailed explanation.
