CSS Formatter

Format and beautify CSS stylesheets. Free online CSS formatter to make styles easier to read and maintain.

Everything runs in your browser. Your input is not sent to a server. Previews run in an isolated sandboxed frame and only when you press Run Preview.

How to use the CSS Formatter

  1. Paste your CSS.
  2. Press Format.
  3. Copy the beautified stylesheet.
  4. Adjust and re-format as you edit.

How it works

Rules and declarations are spaced and indented consistently. The formatter does not evaluate styles in a browser engine—it only rewrites text layout.

Useful before code review or when reading minified CSS.

Examples

  • body{margin:0;color:#333} becomes multi-line with indentation.
  • Nested rules (if present) are indented by depth where supported.
  • Comments are preserved when the formatter keeps them.
