HTML minification is the process of removing all unnecessary characters from HTML source code without changing its functionality. This includes removing comments, whitespace (spaces, newlines, tabs), and sometimes even optional closing tags or attribute quotes if done by more advanced tools.

Benefits:

• Reduced File Size: Smaller HTML files lead to faster page load times.
• Lower Bandwidth Consumption: Saves bandwidth for both the server and the user.

This tool performs basic minification by removing HTML comments and redundant whitespace. For critical production environments, consider using build tools with more advanced minification capabilities.
