A

From code point of view, 3Dmol.js and 3Dmol-min.js are the same.

But they are stored in different file formats:

1. 3Dmol-min.js is the minimized version of 3Dmol.js with all line breaks and other white spaces removed.

2. 3Dmol-min.js is 3 times smaller than 3Dmol.js. So you should use 3Dmol.js in production systems to reduce network traffic.

3. But 3Dmol.js contains line breaks and white spaces. So you should use 3Dmol.js in test systems to have better error messages with exact line numbers.
