Frequently asked questions
What is a .gz file?
It is a gzip-compressed file, common for web assets, logs and Unix backups. Squish creates them using your browser native engine.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Compression uses your browser own engine and your files stay on your device.
Can I gzip more than one file?
Yes. Drop a batch and each file is compressed to its own .gz.
