Frequently Asked Questions

Will JavaScript minification break my code?
Basic minification (removing whitespace and comments) is very safe. Advanced features like name mangling require more careful testing but can provide significant size reduction.
How much can I reduce JavaScript file size?
Typical reduction is 30-60% depending on code structure and comments. Well-commented and formatted code can see even greater reductions.
Are modern JavaScript features supported?
Yes! The minifier handles ES6+, async/await, arrow functions, destructuring, template literals, and other modern JavaScript features.
Should I minify JavaScript during development?
No, keep readable formatting during development. Minification should be part of your build process or deployment pipeline.
Can I preserve specific comments?
Yes, important comments starting with /*! or /** are preserved even when comment removal is enabled.
