About HTML Formatter

Format HTML code with proper indentation and line breaks, or minify it by removing whitespace. Supports customizable indent size for beautified output.

How It Works

Paste your HTML code and choose to format (beautify) or minify. The formatter parses HTML tags and text nodes, applying proper indentation based on nesting level. Void elements and inline content are handled correctly.

Step by Step

  1. 1 Paste your HTML code in the input area
  2. 2 Choose Format (beautify) or Minify
  3. 3 Select indent size (2 or 4 spaces)
  4. 4 Copy the formatted result

Tips

  • Use Format to make compressed HTML readable
  • Use Minify to reduce file size for production
  • Inline elements (span, a, strong) stay on the same line

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the formatter validate HTML?
No. It formats the structure but does not validate or fix broken HTML tags.
Are self-closing tags handled?
Yes. Void elements like <br>, <img>, <input>, and <hr> are handled correctly without closing tags.
