    • Project mention: How to improve page load speed and response times: A comprehensive guide | dev.to | 2024-02-26

    Minification involves removing unnecessary characters, whitespace, and comments from code files. It helps reduce HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc., file sizes without compromising functionality. Removing redundant elements makes these HTML, JavaScript, and CSS files smaller. Since smaller code files need less internet traffic to transfer, they load faster. Utilizing tools like UglifyJS, Clean-CSS, and HTMLMinifier enhances this process of code reduction. They analyze the code, remove redundant code, and generate optimized files for deployment.

    (If you’re curious how Babel deals with the more complicated cases of continue, break, labelled break, and return, try it out at https://babeljs.io/repl.)

  • clean-css

    Fast and efficient CSS optimizer for node.js and the Web
