Example

Format a compact HTML snippet

Formatting helps reveal nesting and missing closing tags more quickly.

Input


                        <div><h1>Hello</h1><p>Welcome</p></div>

Output


                        <div>
  <h1>Hello</h1>
  <p>Welcome</p>
</div>

Review a nested card component

Readable indentation makes it easier to confirm that headings, copy, and links are grouped in the right container.

Input


                        <article><h2>Plan</h2><p>For teams</p><a href="/pricing">View</a></article>

Output


                        <article>
  <h2>Plan</h2>
  <p>For teams</p>
  <a href="/pricing">View</a>
</article>

Minify a small embed snippet

Minification is useful for short embeds, but review whitespace-sensitive content before using compact output.

Input


                        <div class="badge">
  <span>Beta</span>
</div>

Output


                        <div class="badge"><span>Beta</span></div>

Practical Notes

This is a lightweight formatter for common HTML snippets, not a full browser parser.
For framework templates, verify the final output in your build system.
Minification may not be appropriate inside pre, textarea, or content where whitespace matters.
If formatted indentation looks wrong, check for missing closing tags or copied partial markup.
Do not minify template syntax blindly when a framework uses whitespace, directives, or server-side placeholders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this format a full HTML document?

Yes. You can paste a full HTML document or a smaller snippet. The formatter is designed for common markup cleanup.

Does it validate HTML?

It does not perform standards validation. It formats and minifies text. Use a validator for strict HTML correctness checks.

Is my HTML uploaded?

No. Formatting runs locally in your browser.

Can this format JSX or framework templates?

It is intended for HTML snippets. Some JSX or template syntax may format acceptably, but framework-specific code should be checked with the formatter used by that framework.

When should I minify HTML?

Minify only when compact output matters, such as short embeds or production delivery. Keep readable HTML while reviewing, documenting, or debugging markup.
