Did You Know?
Minifying HTML can typically reduce the document size by 5% to 20% depending on the original formatting.
HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the standard language used to create the structure and content of web pages. While developers use indentation and comments to make HTML readable during development, browsers do not need these extra characters to render the page. Minification bridges the gap between developer-friendly source code and performance-optimized production code.
Best Practice
Always keep your unminified source code in version control like Git and only use minified code in your build artifacts.
