(byte)size matters

Read Original

The article details the creation of bytesizematters.com, a standalone web tool for developers to calculate the byte size of any text input, accounting for line terminator differences. It discusses the tool's development, its potential uses in code optimization (like CSS and JavaScript), and asks for feedback on features such as minification and text comparison for refactoring.
