There are many minifiers such as terser and uglify. But, because minifying also require to parse the JS, it is actually possible to use esbuild and SWC to minify the code. Here's a benchmark of the main minifiers.
TypeScript extends JavaScript by adding types to the language. It may looks a bit scary at the beginning because it adds some syntax and you'll have the feeling to develop more slowly at the beginning. In practice, TypeScript speeds up your development experience by catching errors and providing fixes before you even run your code. Your IDE will offer a much better completion by knowing the type of the objects you're manipulating. For serious projects, I wouldn't go back to JavaScript.
