Python

Python is a general-purpose high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability. Python claims to "[combine] remarkable power with very clear syntax", and its standard library is large and comprehensive.

Asset Deflator (2010)

Description: This script can help you reduce your website loading times by minimizing the size of your website static resources.

It can minify CSS files (using YUI compressor), compile JavaScript files (using Google Closure Compiler) and compress images (using jpegoptim and optipng).

Not only it can compile external JavaScript files, but it can also find and automatically compile blocks of inline JavaScript and internal CSS code located in your templates / html files.

It would ideally be used some where in your website deployment process.
