How the calculation works
UTF-8 bytes are measured with TextEncoder; minified size uses JSON.parse followed by JSON.stringify.
What to verify
Whitespace savings do not include HTTP compression, headers or transport encoding.
How accurate is this calculator?
It is a transparent planning calculation based on the entered values and stated assumptions. Verify inputs and obtain professional or supplier confirmation where the decision is consequential.
Does it use U.S. defaults?
Yes. U.S. units, terminology, pricing conventions and rules are the primary defaults where location matters.
Is data sent to a server?
No. The calculation runs locally in the browser and does not send entered values to a remote calculation service.
