JS Beautifier vs UglifyJS: What are the differences?

JS Beautifier: Beautify, unpack or deobfuscate JavaScript and HTML, make JSON/JSONP readable, etc. This little beautifier will reformat and reindent bookmarklets, ugly JavaScript, unpack scripts packed by Dean Edward’s popular packer, as well as deobfuscate scripts processed by javascriptobfuscator.com; UglifyJS: JavaScript parser / mangler / compressor / beautifier library for NodeJS. This package implements a general-purpose JavaScript parser/compressor/beautifier toolkit. It is developed on NodeJS, but it should work on any JavaScript platform supporting the CommonJS module system (and if your platform of choice doesn’t support CommonJS, you can easily implement it, or discard the exports.* lines from UglifyJS sources).

JS Beautifier and UglifyJS belong to "Javascript Utilities & Libraries" category of the tech stack.

JS Beautifier and UglifyJS are both open source tools. It seems that UglifyJS with 8.11K GitHub stars and 762 forks on GitHub has more adoption than JS Beautifier with 6.26K GitHub stars and 1.1K GitHub forks.

        What are some alternatives to JS Beautifier and UglifyJS?
        Prettier
        Prettier is an opinionated code formatter. It enforces a consistent style by parsing your code and re-printing it with its own rules that take the maximum line length into account, wrapping code when necessary.
        jQuery
        jQuery is a cross-platform JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side scripting of HTML.
        React
        Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.
        AngularJS
        AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.
        Vue.js
        It is a library for building interactive web interfaces. It provides data-reactive components with a simple and flexible API.
