MiniME - Open-source JavaScript Minifier

Sorry :( This Project is not longer under development or maintenance. The repo is kept here for posterity only.

MiniME is an open-source JavaScript minifier that runs on the .NET platform (Windows or Mono).

If you don't know what a JavaScript minifier is, you probably don't need one but there's a good explanation here.

At a Glance

• Removes whitespace, comments and redundant braces, parentheses and semicolons.
• Obfuscates local variables and nested functions.
• Detects and removes constant variables.
• Opt-in obfuscation of object properties and methods.
• Opt-in comment preservation.
• Optional code quality warnings (aka "lint") that won't hurt your feelings.
• Can combine multiple scripts into one.
• Can also compress CSS files.
• Command line and .NET API.
• Runs on Windows (.NET 3.5) and under Mono 2.6 (Linux/Mac OS X).
• Tiny <50k download.

Command Line or API

Use it from the command line:

mm MyJavaScriptFile.js

or programatically from .NET code:

var mm = new MiniME.Compiler();
mm.AddFile("MyJavaScriptFile.js");
var minified=mm.CompileToString();
