Example 1: Minified vs beautified
Minified jQuery
$(function(){var $b=$("body");$("form.ajax").on("submit",function(e){e.preventDefault();var $f=$(this),u=$f.attr("action")||"/",d=$f.serialize();$.post(u,d).done(function(r){$f.find(".result").html(r)}).fail(function(){alert("Request failed")})});$(".toggle").on("click",function(){var s=$(this).data("target");$(s).toggleClass("hidden")})});var t=()=>1;t();localStorage.v=1;window.c=1;document.c=2;
Beautified jQuery
$(function() { var $b = $("body"); $("form.ajax").on("submit", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var $f = $(this), u = $f.attr("action") || "/", d = $f.serialize(); $.post(u, d).done(function(r) { $f.find(".result").html(r) }).fail(function() { alert("Request failed") }) }); $(".toggle").on("click", function() { var s = $(this).data("target"); $(s).toggleClass("hidden") }) }); var t = () => 1; t(); localStorage.v = 1; window.c = 1; document.c = 2;
Example 2: Complex snippet
Minified jQuery
(function($){$(function(){var $d=$(document),$b=$("body");$d.on("submit",".ajax",function(e){e.preventDefault();var $f=$(this),u=$f.attr("action")||"/",d=$f.serialize();$.post(u,d).done(function(r){$f.find(".result").html(r)}).fail(function(){alert("Request failed")})});$d.on("click",".toggle",function(){var s=$(this).data("target");$(s).toggleClass("hidden")});$(".tabs").on("click","a",function(e){e.preventDefault();var t=$(this),id=t.attr("href");t.closest(".tabs").find("a").removeClass("active");t.addClass("active");$(id).show().siblings().hide()});$(".notify").toast("ok");var x=1})})(jQuery);
Beautified jQuery
(function($) { $(function() { var $d = $(document), $b = $("body"); $d.on("submit", ".ajax", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var $f = $(this), u = $f.attr("action") || "/", d = $f.serialize(); $.post(u, d).done(function(r) { $f.find(".result").html(r) }).fail(function() { alert("Request failed") }) }); $d.on("click", ".toggle", function() { var s = $(this).data("target"); $(s).toggleClass("hidden") }); $(".tabs").on("click", "a", function(e) { e.preventDefault(); var t = $(this), id = t.attr("href"); t.closest(".tabs").find("a").removeClass("active"); t.addClass("active"); $(id).show().siblings().hide() }); $(".notify").toast("ok"); var x = 1 }) })(jQuery);
