Conservative minify removes comments and whitespace between tags while keeping text content between tags. Readable format adds line breaks between tags for inspection.</p><h2>How the result is produced</h2><p>The browser applies regular-expression transformations intended for simple markup. It does not parse the input into a complete HTML document tree, which is why the page labels the output conservative.</p><h2>Test examples</h2><p><div>\n <p>Hello</p>\n</div> becomes <div><p>Hello</p></div> under the conservative rule. Whitespace inside a text node is not treated as disposable.</p><h2>Limitations</h2><p>Do not use this as a production build pipeline. It may be unsuitable for preformatted text, inline scripts, inline styles, conditional comments, or markup where whitespace is meaningful. Always validate the result in the target browser.</p><h2>Privacy and processing</h2><p>The HTML is transformed locally in the browser and is not sent to the Nofyi server.</p><h2>Related guide</h2><p><a href="https://nofyi.com/when-html-whitespace-matters/">When HTML whitespace matters and when it does not</a></p><h2>Related tools in this category</h2><ul class="nfaf-related-tools"><li><a href="https://nofyi.com/tools/url-encoder-decoder/">URL Encoder and Decoder</a><span>Use this for query values and URL components, not for blindly re-encoding a complete URL.</span></li><li><a href="https://nofyi.com/tools/html-entity-encoder-decoder/">HTML Entity Encoder and Decoder</a><span>Convert text to safe visible entities or decode common entities back to characters.</span></li><li><a href="https://nofyi.com/tools/css-minifier-formatter/">CSS Minifier and Formatter</a><span>Paste CSS and choose a compact or readable output for inspection.</span></li></ul><h2>Documentation</h2><ul><li><a href="https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html</a></li><li><a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/pre" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/pre</a></li></ul><p class="nfaf-disclosure">This page describes the implementation shipped with the NOFYI Tool Factory.
