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.
