Mollify Node.js Minify Middleware

Mollify is a Node.js middleware that integrates the `minify` package, providing on-the-fly minification of static assets like JavaScript, CSS, and HTML files. It is primarily designed for use with web frameworks such as Express, streamlining the process of serving optimized content. The current stable version is 6.0.0, released after several iterative updates that include dropping support for older Node.js versions (now requiring Node.js >=16) and a significant transition to ESM in version 5.0.0. The package has a moderate release cadence, often driven by updates to its core `minify` dependency or environmental changes. Its key differentiator lies in its straightforward integration as an Express middleware, offering a simple solution for asset optimization without requiring complex build pipelines, making it suitable for rapid development and certain production environments.
