JavascriptMinifierBenchDemo

Benchmarking various ways of javascript minification

In this demo, i m using BenchmarkDotNet library in order to benchmark various ways of javascript minification.

🔰 Minification means removing all unnecessary characters, such as spaces, new lines, comments, without changing the functionality of the source code.

Light adhoc ways (not for production) :

1️⃣ Using concat

2️⃣ Using replace

3️⃣ Using split join

4️⃣ Using compiled regex

Full robust ways (ready for production) :

5️⃣ Using Ajaxmin library

6️⃣ Using nuglify library

7️⃣ Using WebMarkupMin library

In order to run benchmarks, type this command in your favorite terminal :

✍️ .\App.exe
