How can an existing json string be cleaned up/minfied? I've seen regexes being used. Any other (maybe more efficient) approach?

Install-Package Newtonsoft.Json
Just parse it and then serialize back into JSON:
var jsonString = " { title: \"Non-minified JSON string\" } ";
var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(jsonString);
jsonString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj);
SerializeObject(obj, Formatting.None) method accepts Formatting enum as a second parameter. You can always choose if you want Formatting.Indented or Formatting.None.
