Frequently Asked Questions

What is JavaScript minification?

JavaScript minification is the process of removing unnecessary characters from code (like whitespace, comments, and line breaks) and optimizing it to reduce file size. This improves website load times and performance.

What does 'mangle' mean in JS minification?

Mangling is the process of renaming variables and function names to shorter versions (like 'a', 'b', 'c'). This significantly reduces code size while maintaining functionality.

Will minification break my JavaScript code?

If your JavaScript code is syntactically correct, minification will preserve its functionality. However, if there are syntax errors, the minifier will show an error message to help you fix them.

Should I minify JavaScript for production?

Yes! Minifying JavaScript for production is a best practice. It reduces file size by 30-70%, improving page load times and bandwidth usage. Always keep an unminified version for development.

Can I remove console.log statements automatically?

Yes! Our JS minifier has an option to automatically remove all console.log statements from your code, which is recommended for production builds.

Is my JavaScript code safe and private?

Absolutely. All minification happens entirely in your browser. Your JavaScript code never gets uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
