✨ HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Beautifier
Beautify and unminify your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code. Restore proper indentation, line breaks, and formatting to make minified code readable and editable again.
✨ Why Beautify Your Code?
- Improved Readability: Make minified code human-readable again
- Easier Debugging: Find and fix issues in compressed code
- Code Analysis: Understand third-party minified scripts
- Learning: Study minified production code
- Code Review: Review compressed code before deployment
- Development: Work with legacy minified files
📋 How to Use the Code Beautifier
- Choose the code type: HTML, CSS or JavaScript.
- Paste the minified code, or upload a file, and set the indent size.
- Select Beautify Code.
- Copy or download the formatted output.
🎯 When to Use It
- Reading a minified script or stylesheet while debugging.
- Tidying code before editing it.
- Making copied code readable for review.
💡 Tips & Common Pitfalls
- Beautifying restores layout only. It cannot bring back original variable names or comments that were removed.
- Obfuscated code will be formatted but stays hard to read.
- The formatted code behaves the same, but the file is larger, so don't use it in production.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What is code beautification?
Beautification (or prettifying) is the process of adding proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing to make code more readable. It's the opposite of minification.
Can beautified code run the same as minified code?
Yes! Beautification only changes formatting, not functionality. The code will execute exactly the same way.
What indent size should I use?
Most developers use 2 or 4 spaces. Choose 2 for more compact code, or 4 for better visual hierarchy. Avoid tabs for web code.
Will beautifying increase file size?
Yes, beautified code is larger due to added whitespace and line breaks. Use beautified code for development, minified for production.
Can I beautify obfuscated code?
Beautification can format obfuscated code, but it won't make variable names meaningful. Obfuscated code will remain difficult to understand even when formatted.
