Overview
Minify HTML by collapsing whitespace for quick sharing and compact snippets. Useful for emails, embeds, and small template fragments. Runs locally in your browser.
Use cases
- Shrink an HTML snippet before embedding it in a CMS.
- Clean up whitespace before sending markup in a support ticket.
- Prepare compact HTML for a quick reproduction.
Common pitfalls
- Minifying can break formatting for whitespace-sensitive HTML; test especially for emails and templates.
- If you need production-grade minification, use your build pipeline (bundler) instead of a manual tool.
FAQs
Will it change HTML semantics?
It can for whitespace-sensitive contexts like <pre> or inline text nodes where spaces matter. Use it mainly for safe snippets.
Does it execute scripts?
No. It only transforms strings.
Is it the same as production-grade minifiers?
No. It’s intentionally simple. For production builds, use a bundler/minifier pipeline.
Will it remove comments?
This tool focuses on whitespace. Comment handling depends on the implementation details.
Examples
