Closure Compiler is a JavaScript optimizing compiler. It parses your JavaScript, analyzes it, removes dead code and rewrites and minimizes what's left. It also checks syntax, variable references, and types, and warns about common JavaScript pitfalls. It is used in many of Google's JavaScript apps, including Gmail, Google Web Search, Google Maps, and Google Docs.

There is a newer version: v20240317

/**
 * Collapses anonymous function expressions into named function declarations,
 * i.e. the following:
 *
 *  * var f = function() {}
 *  *
 * becomes:
 *
 * function f() {}
 *
 * This reduces the generated code size but changes the semantics because f
 * will be defined before its definition is reached.
 * Also, in ES6+, "var f" is visible in the entire function scope, whereas
 * "function f" is block scoped, which may cause issues.
