What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

A high-performance minifier package written in Go supporting HTML5, CSS3, JS, JSON, SVG, and XML, with a CLI tool and bindings for Python, JavaScript, and .NET. It associates mimetypes with minification functions so embedded resources like CSS or JS inside HTML are minified too.

Use cases

  • minify html css and js files
  • shrink web assets for faster page loads
  • compress svg and xml files
  • minify json payloads
  • build step asset minification for go projects
  • fast javascript minification alternative to terser

When to choose

  • you need a fast, dependency-light minifier with a CLI or Go API
  • you want to minify multiple web formats including HTML, CSS, JS, JSON, SVG, and XML with one tool
  • you need to minify embedded resources (CSS/JS inside HTML) in one pass

When to avoid

  • you need advanced JS transformations like bundling, tree-shaking, or ES module optimization
  • you are in a Node.js build pipeline already using esbuild or terser
  • you need image or font minification, which is out of scope
