About this tool
Strips comments and unnecessary line breaks and spaces from CSS and JavaScript to shrink the file. Less to download means the page paints sooner. Your code is processed inside the browser and never sent anywhere.
When to use it
- —Slimming down styles or scripts you plan to inline into a small page
- —Manually reducing file size on a static site with no build tooling
- —Fitting code into a tight size budget, such as an email template
Good to know
- —This does not obfuscate: variable names and code structure are left alone; only whitespace and comments go.
- —Code that relies on line breaks (JavaScript with omitted semicolons) can behave differently after minifying, so test it.
- —Minified output cannot be restored, so keep the original.
