Minify HTML

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

npm install grunt-contrib-htmlmin --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-htmlmin');

Htmlmin task

Run this task with the grunt htmlmin command.
