FAQ

Does minifying change my data?

No. Only whitespace outside strings is removed; keys, values and their order stay exactly the same.

Is minified JSON faster?

It is smaller to send and store. With gzip or brotli compression on the server the difference shrinks, but minified JSON is still slightly smaller.
