Tech Best stand-alone Javascript obfuscation software?

[dcortez]

Is anyone writing Javascript and using any "minimizing" or "obfuscating" software (not online tools)?

Which do you recommend?

Thanks!

webpack or gulp

ETA: By "not online tools" do you mean you want something that works locally on your workstation?

You may use my minimizer. It works with HTML, JavaScript and PHP: https://www.wmutils.com/minimify/

Correct. I would like a utility that does not require the transmission of my code or use of the utility beyond the realm of my local desktop.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Thanks for that, but I'm looking for a stand-alone desktop utility that processes my source code locally and privately.

It also works privately and doesn't save your code anywhere. To be honest, who will need to do it?

Since it runs in browser, it can be used as a standalone desktop or mobile utility

Thanks for explaining.

Perhaps, I'm misunderstanding. It seems that the browser page has numerous external web-based includes. And the script for actually parsing the source code is external?

So, if I enter my source code into the form text area, and click on Minify My Code, my private source code is sent up to your server, which does "something" and returns the result. Is that correct?

You can setup webpack locally too. You won't even need to manually intervene to minify files; you can setup a watch folder.

Thank-you for all the suggestions. I will check them out.

In the end, I may just write my own utility. That way I can hardcode my user license information for each build.

If there are any other suggestions, please keep them coming.

Yes it is. The key moment there: that's my service. So I know that nobody will steal your code. Somebody else may do it, but not me.

P.S. If I won't be a lazy ass, I'll convert my PHP script into a stand-alone desktop Windows executable.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
