How to bundle JavaScript files in PhpStorm - javascript

How to combine 2 or more JavaScript files in to a one file in PhpStorm (OR WebStorm).
I've searched and found just this result but it is not an answer:
Minifying JavaScript
I want something like this: Visual studio Bundler & Minifier plugin.

There's no built-in feature for that in IDE.
You can configure a grunt task inside IDE to concatenate files with https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-concat

Minify a JavaScript file to the root JS file extension in Visual Studio

Developing .NET web projects, I'm used to using either the bundleconfig.json and/or compilerconfig.json file to bundle and/or minify javascript (and css) files. Is there a way to use either of these methods or some other method to minify a source javascript file (located in a folder outside of wwwroot) to the root .js file extension? I don't want the minified output to be filename.min.js, I want it to be filename.js (but minified).
I know ultimately, I can manually rename the files to accomplish this, but I'd rather it be automated in Visual Studio if possible.
Also, if it helps, I'm currently building this project in .NET 6.
Search for Visual Studio Code Minify plugin on Google. There are many here. For example, https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.BundlerMinifier https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=fbdegroot.Minifier.

Need assistance with Typescript Modules bundling

I am currently developing a Typescript application using lit html. I have reached the point where I want to bundle all my typescript files, minimize them in to a single javascript file. Using VS Code as the IDE.
I have been looking at options - rollup.js is one option but I couldn't work out how to bundle multiple ts files in to a single js file, minimize it and also ensure the modules are handled correctly.
Any examples of using rollup.js to do such available or another alternative available?
You can use Parcel js for this as well. This will generate one js file. but if you require rollup js, may be this link will help you out.

what is the difference between gulp-browserify and uglify.minify

What is the difference between "gulp-browserify" and "uglify.minify". Both are used to minify the files. I am trying to compress a group of JS file to a single file both serves good which is preferable.
gulp-browserify (which is no longer being maintained by the way) is used to concatenate (or to use the browserify vernacular "bundle") application files that have been written using commonJS in order to use them in the browser (which otherwise you wouldn't be able to do). The browserify application itself doesn't appear to actually have a minify option, but there is a plugin you can use that does minify the files after they have been bundled.
Uglify will just minify "normal" JavaScript files. If you want them concatenated then you would also need to add something like gulp-concat to your gulp configuration in order to do that.

How to compress huge java-script framework into few files (including sub directory's)

I have a huge javascript framework with sub directories that contains a lot of JavaScript includes to other JavaScript files, how can I take these JavaScript files and compress them to a single or very few compressed JavaScript
files?
You will want to do this through some sort of build process. JavaScript has tools for this like grunt or gulp. Using these tools you will write a build script that uses something like uglify to do the actual minification.
You can do that with "jsmin" or "closure-compiler".

How to organize and minify lots of javascript files?

I have a project written on PHP and JavaScript.
For example, I have two main JavaScript files
main1.js and main2.js.
They use the same functions, and I want to extract the functions to lib.js etc.
On develop environment it's more useful to use 3 different files, but on production i'd like to have 2 minifyied files with lib.js included.
I want to see changes on dev immediately without any preprocessing, and I want to use some preprocessing on production.
For example I can write a javascript function require(filename) that loads needed js file, but how to tell minifyer to include the file inline on production?
You should look into YUI Compressor
and also into creating makefiles
you can also compress CSS with YUI Compressor
If you are using netbeans then you can use the plugin from here
Plugin
Also you can use
minifycss
YUI
For online compression
Coffee Script is used for caching the js files on browser side. It create a single js file from all files, and minify the resultant code.
you can try these for minify javascript and css online.
