Key features
Key features
Removes optional whitespace and comments
Inter-tag whitespace, indent whitespace, and HTML comments are stripped. Scripts, styles, and pre elements are protected from collapsing.
Attribute quote normalization
Optional quotes around simple attribute values may be removed depending on the minification level, reducing character count.
Size reduction with safe output
The minified HTML is valid markup that browsers render identically. Copy or download the compacted result.
Protected content blocks
Content inside script, style, and pre tags is preserved as-is so inline JavaScript and CSS are not broken.

Limitations and important notes
Limitations and important notes
- Keep an unminified source copy for maintenance and debugging.
- Large or deeply structured input depends on available browser memory and may process more slowly on mobile devices.
- The tool implements practical browser-based processing and may not reproduce every feature of specialist desktop software or every vendor-specific extension.
- Keep the original source and review generated output before production, security-sensitive, financial, legal, or safety-critical use.
