How to Use

1. Paste your raw or minified HTML into the input field and set your indentation style (spaces or tabs) and indent size. 2. Adjust formatting options — choose whether to collapse empty attributes, sort attributes alphabetically, or wrap long attribute lines. 3. Preview the formatted output instantly in the result panel below, with syntax structure preserved. 4. Copy the beautified HTML to your clipboard with one click, or download it as an .html file for use in your project.

Why Use This Tool?

Manually indenting HTML wastes time and introduces inconsistency, especially in large templates or CMS-generated markup. This tool formats instantly in-browser with zero dependencies — no Node.js, no npm package, no sign-up. It handles deeply nested structures, inline elements, and void elements correctly so you get output that matches real-world coding standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the HTML Formatter / Beautifier?
The HTML Formatter / Beautifier is a browser-based tool that takes messy, minified, or inconsistently indented HTML and reformats it into clean, readable markup using your chosen indentation and style preferences.
Can this tool format HTML with embedded CSS and JavaScript?
Yes — the formatter preserves the content of <style> and <script> blocks without breaking their syntax. It re-indents the opening and closing tags to match the surrounding HTML structure, but does not reformat the inner CSS or JS content, which prevents accidental breakage of complex scripts or style rules.
Is it free?
Yes — the HTML Formatter / Beautifier is completely free with no signup required. Built by the CanvasBuilder.co team.
