Minifying code for PhoneGap App?

Question

I am currently starting to build an PhoneGap application, I know the advantages of minifying code for browsers already. However, I was wondering if it was worth minifying my HTM

Answer 1

In general it is not worth minifying PhoneGap application. Minifying is beneficial for web application as it reduces size of each request.

With PhoneGap all your HTML/JS/CSS will be bundled into application package (which is compressed btw.) and downloaded once on application install. So there won't be any gains in speed.
