<p>Has anyone successfully minified Craft's HTML templates?</p>

<p>Had setup a Grunt task but it had parse issues with the twig template tags. I since found that the Grunt task "HTMLmin" is only for the purposes of minifying "vanilla" HTML.</p>

<p>Is this even possible?</p>

<p>Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.</p>

Has anyone successfully minified Craft's HTML templates?

Had setup a Grunt task but it had parse issues with the twig template tags. I since found that the Grunt task "HTMLmin" is only for the purposes of minifying "vanilla" HTML.

Is this even possible?

Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.

There are [several](https://github.com/johndwells/craft.minimee) [plugins](http://straightupcraft.com/craft-plugins/compressor) that will [minify/compress](http://straightupcraft.com/craft-plugins/automin) CSS/JS for you.

But for HTML, maybe you're better off just [enabling gzip compression](http://www.feedthebot.com/pagespeed/enable-compression.html) on your web server for all output.
