summary:
# Minification **Minification** is the process of removing unnecessary or redundant data without affecting how a resource is processed by the browser. Minification can include the removal of code comments, white space, and unused code, as well as the shortening of variable and function names. Minification is used to improve web performance by reducing file size. It is generally an automated step that occurs at build time. As minification makes code less legible to humans, developer tools have 'prettification' features that can add white space back into the code to make it a bit more legible. ## Help improve MDN [Learn how to contribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/Community/Getting_started) This page was last modified on Jul 11, 2025 by [MDN contributors](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Minification/contributors.txt).

summary:
# Mobile first **Mobile first** , a form of [progressive enhancement](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Progressive_Enhancement), is a web-development and web-design approach that focuses on prioritizing design and development for mobile screen sizes over design and development for desktop screen sizes. The rationale behind the mobile-first approach is to provide users with good user experiences at all screen sizes—by starting with creating a user experience that works well on small screens, and then building on top of that to further enrich the user experience as the screen size increases. The mobile-first approach contrasts with the older approach of designing for desktop screen sizes first, and then only later adding some support for small screen sizes. ## Help improve MDN [Learn how to contribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/Community/Getting_started) This page was last modified on Jul 18, 2025 by [MDN contributors](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Mobile_First/contributors.txt).
