Why minify?

Your site can experience a 27% higher conversion rate by improving page speed by 1 second. Or read about these stories; and consider that Google ranks your page higher on search engine results the faster it loads. No matter what
your website, you want people to use it. The slower it loads, the less patient people are going to be waiting around for
the content.

Minification is just one of the ways you can make your website more accessible to others, besides other options like adding a load balancer to help distribute network traffic or upgrading to the latest and greatest version of your framework (which you SHOULD do if you are using .NET Core). Thankfully, minification is easy and this library aims to give you the biggest possible performance improvement for your .cshtml/html files.

Why not use another minification library that's recommended by Google? That library only works on HTML files, but rest assured, we are taking heavy inspiration from this library in order to make use of the same minification techniques for .cshtml files. In case our library's approach of using gulp to minify your .cshtml does not work for you, I would recommend an .exe in order to minify your .cshtml and steer you away from options like this if you can help it. (Minifying at runtime incurs a performance penalty).

How it works

This minification library works by taking the biggest offenders to page weight and nullifies them. We reduce the number of bytes your .cshtml/html is made of, which makes it quicker to send the page to the end user. What do we do exactly? The list isn't comprehensive (and more features are being added), but here is what we have right now:

- [X] Removes leading/trailing whitespace
- [X] Removes HTML/Razor/CSS comments
- [X] Minifies inline gulp-cshtml-minify - npm explorer
