Code Formatter
Format JSON, JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, SQL, Python, and PHP snippets so the structure is readable again. It is meant for pasted fragments, quick reviews, and compact code that needs breathing room. It is free, needs no account, and adds no watermark to your result.

What people use it for.
What happens to your file.
Supported languages are sent through a parser-backed formatter where available, so indentation follows syntax rather than simple line breaks. Lightweight fallback formatting is used for languages where a full parser is not loaded.
Where it stops: A formatter is not a compiler. It may reject syntactically broken code, and it will not refactor logic or make unsafe code safe.
Everything you need, without a paywall.
Common questions.
Does it change what the code does?
Formatting should only change whitespace and punctuation style, not behavior. Review output before replacing production code.
Can it minify?
Yes, for supported languages and simple snippets.
Why did formatting fail?
Most failures come from invalid syntax or from pasting only part of a larger construct.
