Reading bundled and minified JavaScript

Shipped JavaScript has been through a bundler and a minifier: whitespace gone, variables renamed to single letters, modules concatenated. Re-indenting restores the block structure, which is usually enough to follow the control flow of a function even when every identifier is called t.

What beautifying cannot restore is names. Minification is lossy — once userAccountBalance became t, the original is gone unless a source map was published alongside. If one was, loading it in dev tools gives you the real source, which is far better than reading formatted output.

Where the semicolons come back

Minifiers strip optional semicolons and rely on automatic semicolon insertion. A beautifier that re-adds them is making a judgement about where statements end, and in the few genuinely ambiguous cases — a line starting with ( or [, a return followed by a newline — that judgement can differ from the engine's. Treat beautified output as something to read rather than something to run.

A note on what you are reading

Bundled code you did not write is a reasonable thing to inspect — checking what a third-party script sends, auditing a dependency, understanding a bug in a library. Do check the licence before reusing anything you find, since minification removes copyright headers along with everything else, and the absence of a notice is not the absence of a licence.

Formatting happens entirely in your browser.
