 You can also stack multiple `TerserPlugin` instances to compress different files with different `minify` functions in the same build (e.g. JS with `terserMinify`, HTML with `htmlMinifierTerser`, JSON with `jsonMinify`).
 
+### CSS
+
+The plugin can minify CSS assets too. Pick one of the bundled CSS
+minimizers and set `test` to match your CSS files.
+
+Available CSS minimizers:
+
+- `TerserPlugin.cssnanoMinify` — uses [`cssnano`](https://cssnano.github.io/cssnano/) (via [`postcss`](https://postcss.org/)).
+- `TerserPlugin.cssoMinify` — uses [`csso`](https://github.com/css/csso).

+- `TerserPlugin.esbuildMinifyCss` — uses [`esbuild`](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild) with the CSS loader.
+- `TerserPlugin.lightningCssMinify` — uses [`lightningcss`](https://github.com/parcel-bundler/lightningcss).
+- `TerserPlugin.swcMinifyCss` — uses [`@swc/css`](https://github.com/swc-project/swc).
