Common uses

  • Clean up compressed HTML or CSS for review.
  • Create a smaller copy of a static stylesheet.
  • Standardize indentation in a pasted snippet.

Review minified output

Removing comments can discard license notices or tool directives, and formatting complex embedded syntax may not match every build pipeline. Keep the original source and test the result in context.
