# HTML, CSS & JS Minifier

> Strip whitespace and comments to shrink HTML, CSS and JavaScript for production.

To minify code, paste it and choose the language. Comments and unnecessary whitespace are removed and the size saving is reported. This is a safe textual minifier — it never renames variables, so the output stays debuggable.

## FAQ

### Is this as good as a build-tool minifier?

No, and deliberately so. esbuild and Terser also rename variables, drop dead code and rewrite expressions, which needs a full parse. This tool is for quick one-off snippets where you want the output to remain readable and safe.
