PostCSS Preset Env is a PostCSS plugin pack that transpiles modern CSS features (nesting, cascade layers, color functions, custom media, etc.) into CSS that older browsers understand. It determines which polyfills and fallbacks to apply based on your targeted browsers or runtime environments.

Use cases

• use modern CSS nesting in older browsers
• polyfill CSS color-mix and oklch for legacy browsers
• convert modern CSS syntax to compatible output
• target specific browser support levels with CSS features
• use future CSS specification features today
• add fallbacks for CSS custom media queries
• transpile cascade layers for older browsers

When to choose

• you want to write modern CSS while supporting older browsers
• you already use PostCSS in your build pipeline
• you need configurable polyfills based on browserslist targets
• you want to adopt upcoming CSS spec features before broad browser support

When to avoid

• you only target evergreen browsers and need no transpilation
• you use a framework with its own built-in CSS processing like Next.js or Vite defaults
• you need a full CSS framework with components rather than a transpiler
• your build tool does not support PostCSS plugins
