How to minify Assets in yii2 in basic template?

Question

I am using yii2 basic template. How can I minify the Asset Bundle of my page? I found some documentation regarding minification on http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-structure-assets.html but was not able to do so.

You can do it either as described in official guide using Yii assets management or by using external asset manager such as Grunt or Gulp.

You can read about how to configure Grunt here: https://github.com/samdark/yii2-cookbook/blob/master/book/structure-asset-processing-with-grunt.md
