I am have been building web applications for several years, exploring and looking for ways to improve the web app performance. I would like to ask if there is any method to minify css/js when we launch the web application automatically? I do not use any php frameworks, rather i built my own.
I was exploring one web application and i saw they have this
<link href="/assets/application-76c372b1409e29d226c9566022d5546f.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="/assets/application-cb571d9ff5185e712000e3378494e4ee.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I seen similar sites that has js and css files stored in /assets/ etc with a name starting with application- too. I would like to know if anyone of you know what mechanism they are using? I am sure they compressed their files the same way.
Any idea what framework/programming langugage they are using?
advice appreciated. thanks
