Tool to Unminify / Decompress JavaScript

You cannot truly unminify javascript, as minified javascript replaces variable names with letters, as well as removing code comments - these cannot be "undone" as the original information no longer exists.

It appears that you can at least recreate appropriate spacing, but "real" minified javascript cannot be undone.

You can use Prettier https://prettier.io/docs/en/install.html, to get the script slightly human readable.

If you are having problem with vs code you can add this in your settings.json

"[javascript]": { "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode" },

It works for me for mega file...
