JavaScript Beautifier

The JavaScript Beautifier offers a quick, browser-based solution to format JavaScript into structured, readable syntax—without installing any IDE or extensions.

This tool intelligently reformats even heavily compacted or scrambled JavaScript, restoring indentation, line breaks, and proper nesting. It helps developers, learners, and teams focus on logic—not formatting chaos.

Supports up to 10,000 characters per session and operates fully on the client side for instant processing with zero data transfers.

How to Use JavaScript Beautifier

  1. Paste your JavaScript code into the input panel.

  2. Click the "Beautify" button.

  3. Instantly view clean, structured JavaScript in the output pane.

  4. Use the "Copy" button to export your beautified code for reuse or debugging.

Key Features of JavaScript Beautifier

  • Readable JavaScript in One Click: Converts compressed or minified JS into cleanly indented code.

  • Supports Complex Syntax: Handles arrow functions, chained calls, nested logic, and modern ES6+ structures.

  • Client-Side Processing: Everything happens locally—no code is sent to any server.

  • Fast and Lightweight: Beautifies large chunks of JS instantly using WebAssembly power.

  • Smart Indentation: Automatically detects and applies appropriate indentation levels.

  • Custom Code Snippet Ready: Output is easy to copy, share, or reuse within any environment.

JavaScript Beautifier Use Cases

  • Debugging Obfuscated Code: Make third-party JS legible before inspecting or editing.

FAQs

1. What is the purpose of beautifying JavaScript?
Beautifying JavaScript turns minified or obfuscated code into a readable, indented format. This makes the code easier to understand, debug, and modify—especially in shared or legacy projects.

2. Is this tool safe to use for confidential scripts?
Yes. All code processing is handled locally in your browser. No data is stored or sent to external servers.

3. Does it support modern JavaScript features like ES6+ syntax?
Absolutely. The JavaScript Beautifier handles arrow functions, template literals, async/await, and other modern JS constructs.

4. Can I customize the indentation level?
Currently, it uses a default smart indentation. In future versions, customization features may be added for tab width and brace positioning.

5. Will it change the functionality of my code?
No. The tool does not modify logic or syntax—only the visual formatting of your code structure.

6. How much code can I beautify at once?
You can paste up to 10,000 characters per session. For very large scripts, break them into segments.

7. Is this the same as a linter or validator?
No. Beautification focuses on formatting. Linters check for errors or code style issues, which this tool doesn’t.

8. Will it work on mobile devices?
Yes. The tool is mobile-friendly and functions well on most mobile browsers.

9. Can it beautify embedded scripts inside HTML?
Only pure JavaScript should be used. For HTML/JS combos, use a separate HTML Beautifier or extract the JS section.

10. Is this suitable for production-level scripts?
Yes, especially when you need to inspect third-party libraries, perform quality checks, or train teams on code structures.

11. Does it auto-correct syntax errors?
No. It doesn’t fix broken code. It only structures what you give it.

12. What formats are accepted as input?
Any plain JavaScript snippet—whether minified or loosely formatted—is accepted.

13. Can I revert to original code after beautifying?
No undo function is built-in. Keep your original code separate for backup.

14. Is there a maximum line count?
The limit is based on character count, not line count. Performance may drop with extremely long scripts.
