Stripping comments in production builds #117

Description

@chinedufn

It looks like we preserve comments when running the browserify transform on the tagged template literals source.

I'd like to remove all comments from production builds in order to:

  1. Not accidentally leak information/context that I did not want to leak in prod.
  2. Reduce build size.

First things that come to mind:

Potential Solution 1

browserify -t [nanohtml --strip-comments ] strips comments


FWIW I wouldn't mind if stripping comments was the default or if nanohtml just always stripped comments since I never use comments in the browser. I only use HTML comments while reading code.

.. But I recognize that other people might want them in by default / that could maybe lead to less confusion maybe.. so whatever works!
