Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Minifying for version control

Solution: NEVER commit minified JSON to git. Store readable format in source control, minify during build process.

⚠️

Thinking minification validates

Solution: Minifier doesn't check syntax. Invalid JSON stays invalid. Always validate before minifying.

⚠️

Not measuring actual savings

Solution: For HTTP transfers, gzip compression matters more than minification. Gzipped JSON is already compact.
