# Minification
The [mkdocs-minify-plugin][1] will minify all `*.html` files generated by
`mkdocs build` in a post-processing step, stripping all unnecessary characters
to reduce the payload served to the client.
[1]: https://github.com/byrnereese/mkdocs-minify-plugin
## Installation
Install the plugin using `pip`:
``` sh
pip install mkdocs-minify-plugin
```
## Usage
Add the following lines to `mkdocs.yml`:
``` yaml
plugins:
- search
- minify:
minify_html: true
```
!!! warning "Remember to re-add the `search` plugin"
If you have no `plugins` entry in your config file yet, you'll likely also
want to add back the `search` plugin. MkDocs enables it by default if there
is no `plugins` entry set and it will not be included if omitted.
