Most properly built sites are already combining the JS and minifying it. It's a largely solved problem that is automated with the right tools. Not much added complexity in it.
- anonyfox 13y agoCorrectly. Nowadays most of the web application frameworks have a built-in concept of an "asset pipeline". You drop your javascripts and stylesheets in a specific folder, and when starting your application in a production environment, everything is concatenated, minified and optimized, so you have basically exactly one javascript file and one stylesheet file to download for your users.
- walshemj 13y agoBut most sites are NOT "properly built" the devs just cut and paste vast librarys (some times more than once) into every site! Trust me on this I spent my last 3 years doing analysis on a large number of sites for one of the worlds major publishers.
