A plugin to add JS minification as a post-processing optimisation in Netlify
npm install netlify-plugin-minify-jsThis plugin adds the ability to minify the JS generated by your build.
Note: Many SSGs support this as part of their own process so this might not always be necessary.
This plugin is agnostic to the tool being used to generate the markup, and acts purely on the markup it finds in .js files in the publish folder which Netlify is preparing to deploy to its CDN following a successful build.
To include this plugin in your site deployment, use the file-based installation:
#### 1. Add the plugin as a dependency
``bash
`
#### 2. Add the plugin and its options to your netlify.toml
You can choose which deploy contexts will include the HTML minification with the targets option.
You can use the default options for the minification or use [plugins.inputs.minifierOptions] to pass options to the minifier.
`toml
# Specify which deploy contexts we'll minify JS in.
# Supports any Deploy Contexts available in Netlify.

contexts = [
'production',
'branch-deploy',
'deploy-preview'

# Optionally, override the default options for the minification
