[A novel JavaScript code optimizer] A common practice in JavaScript development is to ship and deploy an application as a large file, called bundle, which is the result of combining the application code along with the code of all the libraries the application depends on. Despite the benefits of having a single bundle per application, this approach leads to applications being shipped with significant portions of code that are actually not used, which unnecessarily inflates the JavaScript bundles and could slow down website loading because of the extra unused code. The goal of this paper is to address the problem of reducing the size of bundle files in JavaScript applications.
