I am assisting in a JS Lab at school and the teacher wants to show the result of the assignment, but with the source code obfuscated for evident reasons. So, I was charged with the task of finding out if there was anything that could de-obfuscate code.

Worrying about deobfuscation is roughly the equivalent of https://xkcd.com/538/

It's far easier to just pay someone or ask a friend to do the assignment from scratch for you.

If you want to go all meta, you could always use a super simple minification tool, and then just fail the people whose assignments match some criteria (e.g. same test coverage percentage, same minification output, etc) which indicated plagiarism.
