Web-Crush CLI is a zero-config build tool for vanilla web projects that minifies HTML, CSS, and JS files while preserving folder structure and copying all other assets. Version 1.2.0 uses Terser, Clean-CSS, and html-minifier under the hood. Released under MIT license by Anson Jaison, it offers a simple npx command, optional configuration via web-crush.config.json, and a 'Recruiter Safe Mode' that keeps console.logs by default. Unlike heavier tools like Vite or Webpack, it requires no setup and handles deep recursion automatically.

Debug
Known issues
deprecatedThe 'assets' configuration key is no longer needed; assets are auto-detected.
fix
Remove 'assets' from web-crush.config.json; it is ignored.
affects: >=1.2.0
gotchaBy default, console.log statements are preserved (Recruiter Safe Mode). To remove them, set dropConsole: true.
fix
Add { "dropConsole": true } to web-crush.config.json.
affects: >=1.0.0
gotchaThe output directory is overwritten each run; any manual changes in public/ will be lost.
fix
Backup public/ or set outDir to a different location.
affects: >=1.0.0
breakingVersion 1.0.0 changed the output structure to preserve original folder hierarchy; earlier versions flattened files.
fix
Update paths if relying on flat output.
affects: >=1.0.0
