Frequently Asked Questions
What is an HTML Formatter?
An HTML Formatter takes your HTML markup and reformats it for better readability. It can add proper indentation (beautify) or remove all whitespace (minify) to reduce file size for production.
What does Beautify do?
Beautify adds proper indentation and line breaks to make HTML human-readable. Each nested element gets indented, making the document structure clear and easy to edit.
What does Minify do?
Minify removes unnecessary whitespace, comments, and line breaks to reduce file size. This is useful for production HTML to improve page load times and save bandwidth.
Is my HTML data secure?
Absolutely. All formatting happens directly in your browser - your HTML is never sent to any server. Your data stays completely private and secure.
