    This is how you could use the wp_preload_resources filter to preload your theme styles.

    function craftedat_preload_assets( array $preload_resources ): array {
    
    	/**
    	 * Check if stylesheet is loaded.
    	 * 'theme-style' is the WP handle of your stylesheet.
    	 */
    	if ( wp_style_is( 'theme-style' ) ) {
    		$wp_style_theme = wp_styles()->registered['theme-style'];
    
    		// Including the version number is crucial.
    		$path_to_theme_styles = $wp_style_theme->src . '?ver=' . $wp_style_theme->ver;
    
    		$preload_resources[] = array(
    			'href'  => $path_to_theme_styles,
    			'as'    => 'style',
    			'media' => 'all',
    			'type'  => 'text/css',
    		);
    	}
    
    	return $preload_resources;
    }
