Professional Tips

Backup Original Files

Always keep backup copies of original XML files before minification, especially for critical configuration files

Validate Before Minifying

Ensure your XML is valid before minification to avoid propagating syntax errors in the compressed output

Test Thoroughly

Test minified XML in your target applications to ensure functionality remains intact after compression

Consider GZIP Compression

For web applications, combine XML minification with GZIP compression for maximum file size reduction
