Hi,
from a CSS-performance point of view I am not sure if I have fully understood global styles. Here’s an example:
So far I used the Body-Element in Customizer > Typography > Typography Manager -> Base to define which style my paragraphs (<p>) should have. As you know if I change the settings here all text style will change wherever I used the p-tag on my site.
Now, I can define exactly the same style in GB > global styles using the heading-p-tag and apply it on the same text as explained above.
So, from a performance point of view (and speeding up my site when it is rendering) should I use global styles in GB? Or should I keep it the way I did using the customizer?
I followed your explanations and watched the video here https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/global-styles/ But still uncertain if the performance issue is really that big.Thanks for clarifying this issue.
Cheers Oliver

Hi there,
The performance difference is negligible. But the workflow is drastically different.
Simple rules i apply:Wherever possible use the Customizer to add styles that you want to apply across your site.
E.g the body<p>or a heading<h1>, <h2> etc.Use GB Block Settings, when you need to break from theme styles.
E.g a landing page heading or Call To Action.
And make that a Global Style when you will be using that style in many places. -
ok, thanks I understand. Have a nice weekend…
