  • Minifying Ruby code for a size-constrained embedding

Frequently asked questions

Does this parse language syntax?
No โ€” it strips blank lines and extra whitespace only; it doesn't parse PHP, Ruby, or SQL syntax the way a dedicated language-aware minifier would. Review the output before using it in production.
Which languages are supported?
PHP, Ruby, and SQL, selectable from the language dropdown.
Is it free to use?
Yes, completely free.
Is my code uploaded anywhere?
No, minification happens locally in your browser.
Why isn't Python included?
Python's syntax depends on indentation to define code blocks, so naive whitespace stripping would break it โ€” Python was deliberately left out rather than offering a minifier that produces invalid code.
