JavaScript Unminification
Unminify compressed JavaScript online. Restore readable formatting — instant browser processing, no uploads.

Features

Unminify

Restore the readability of your minified JavaScript code by adding spaces and line breaks.

Package used

Terser
v5.47.1

Terser is a modern JavaScript compressor that optimizes the size and performance of your code.

Basic example

Input code

function calculateTotal(items) { let total = 0; for (let i = 0; i < items.length; i++) { total += items[i].price; } return total; } const products = [ { name: 'Laptop', price: 999 }, { name: 'Mouse', price: 25 } ]; console.log('Total:', calculateTotal(products));

Minified code

function calculateTotal(t){let e=0;for(let o=0;o<t.length;o++)e+=t[o].price;return e}const products=[{name:"Laptop",price:999},{name:"Mouse",price:25}];console.log("Total:",calculateTotal(products));

Minification options

ECMAScript Version
Defines the target ECMAScript version for minification (ES5, ES2015, ES2017, ES2020, ES2022)

Examples by ECMAScript version:

Original code (ES2022)
const data = { name: 'test' }; const { name } = data; console.log(name);
ES2022
const{name:data}=data;console.log(data)
ES5
var data={name:'test'};var name=data.name;console.log(name)
Compression Level
Controls the aggressiveness of compression (conservative, normal, aggressive)
ConservativeConservative - Minimal compression, safer
NormalNormal - Balance between size and compatibility
AggressiveAggressive - Maximum compression, may break some code

Compression examples:

Original code
function calculateTotal(items) { let total = 0; for (let i = 0; i < items.length; i++) { total += items[i].price; } return total; }
Conservative
function calculateTotal(items){let total=0;for(let i=0;i<items.length;i++)total+=items[i].price;return total}
Normal
function calculateTotal(t){let e=0;for(let l=0;l<t.length;l++)e+=t[l].price;return e}
Aggressive
function e(e){let t=0;for(let n=0;n<e.length;n++)t+=e[n].price;return t}
Preserve Class Names
Preserves CSS class names in string literals

Comparison with/without option:

Original code
element.className = 'my-class'; element.setAttribute('class', 'another-class');
With preserveClassNames: true
element.className='my-class';element.setAttribute('class','another-class')
With preserveClassNames: false
element.className='a';element.setAttribute('class','b')
Difference
CSS class names are preserved in strings
Preserve Function Names
Preserves function names for debugging

Comparison with/without option:

Original code
function myFunction() { return true; } const obj = { myMethod() { return false; } };
With preserveFunctionNames: true
function myFunction(){return!0}const obj={myMethod(){return!1}}
With preserveFunctionNames: false
function a(){return!0}const obj={b(){return!1}}
Difference
Function names are preserved for debugging
Remove Console
Removes all console.log, console.warn, etc. calls

Comparison with/without option:

Original code
console.log('Debug info'); console.warn('Warning message'); const result = calculateTotal(items); console.log('Result:', result); return result;
With removeConsole: true
const result=calculateTotal(items);return result
With removeConsole: false
console.log('Debug info');console.warn('Warning message');const result=calculateTotal(items);console.log('Result:',result);return result
Difference
All console.* calls are removed
Remove Debugger
Removes debugger statements from code

Comparison with/without option:

Original code
if (condition) { debugger; return true; } function test() { debugger; return false; }
With removeDebugger: true
if(condition)return!0;function test(){return!1}
With removeDebugger: false
if(condition){debugger;return!0}function test(){debugger;return!1}
Difference
Debugger statements are removed
Beautify Options
Options for formatting and beautifying JavaScript (Beautify only, not for Minify/Unminify)

Indentation Size

Sets the number of spaces or tabs for indentation during Beautify

Original code
function test(){return true;}
With 2 spaces
function test() { return true; }
With 4 spaces
function test() { return true; }
Difference
Indentation is customizable only for Beautify. Unminify always uses 2 spaces.

Indentation Type

Use spaces or tabs for indentation during Beautify

Original code
function test(){return true;}
With spaces
function test() { return true; }
With tabs
function test() { return true; }
Difference
Spaces are more standard, tabs may be preferred according to your code conventions.

How to Unminify JavaScript Online

JavaScript unminification (also called beautification or formatting) restores readable formatting to compressed code. Paste any minified JavaScript into our tool, and it will add proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing. This is essential for debugging production code, understanding third-party scripts, or reviewing obfuscated libraries. Our tool preserves all functionality while making the code human-readable.

JavaScript Beautifier vs Unminifier — What's the Difference

Both terms refer to making minified code readable, but with subtle differences. A beautifier applies consistent formatting rules (indentation style, brace placement) to any code. An unminifier specifically targets minified code, restoring structure that was stripped during compression. Our tool handles both — paste your code and click Unminify or Beautify depending on your needs.

Concatenating JavaScript Files

Combining multiple JavaScript files into one reduces HTTP requests and can improve page load performance. Use our concatenation feature to merge multiple JS files, then optionally minify the result for maximum compression. This is especially useful for projects that don't use a bundler like Webpack or Rollup.

Frequently Asked Questions — Unminify

Everything about unminification

Can I unminify JavaScript code?

Yes, paste minified JavaScript and click Unminify. Indentation is restored; shortened variable names cannot be recovered.

What is the difference between unminify and beautify?

Unminify targets compressed code. Beautify formats readable source — see our JS beautifier. To compress, use the JS minifier.

Is my code processed securely?

All processing runs locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
