HTML Minifier Next: JSON Schema, Cache Statistics, Default Config File

This article covers three notable updates to HTML Minifier Next (HMN), the successor to HTML Minifier. It now ships a JSON Schema for configuration files, enabling editor validation and autocomplete. New cache statistics are printed with --verbose and --dry flags, showing hits, misses, and entry limits for CSS, JS, and SVG caches. Additionally, HMN automatically detects a default config file (html-minifier-next.config.json) in the working directory, simplifying CLI usage. The article also mentions fixes, security improvements, and performance optimizations.
