Rails 3.1 will do this automagically, as Ryan Bates shows in his Rails-3.1 Overview.

I used bundle-fu, worked great.

  • compresses both css and javascript
  • has no external dependencies
  • is around for a long time (proven)
  • is simpler to use than Jammit (no config file).
  • more

Jammit is newer and fancyer.

  • it has better compression as it can use the latest compressor from google Closure Compiler considered having the best compression
  • is harder to use than bundle-fu (makes you define a config file)
  • has external dependencies (the java runtime to run the closure or yui compressors, written in java).
