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

/**
 * Attaches the CONST_VAR annotation to any variable that's
 * 1) Provably well-defined and assigned once in its lifetime.
 * 2) Annotated 'const'
 * 3) Declared with the 'const' keyword.
 * 4) Is constant by naming convention.
 *
 * These 3 are considered semantically equivalent. Notice that a variable
 * in a loop is never considered const.
 *
 * Note that criteria (1) is only used for normal code, not externs.
