We are going to implement automatic javascript and css minification to our web framework. Minification is a way to make code files smaller by removing comments and redundant whitespace.

This means that all javascript and css files which are sent to a browser from channel.me will be smaller and load quicker. The minification step will be done before the automatic compression step.

Before minification this file was 68 KB, after minification it is 39 KB, which is almost a 50% reduction in size.
