CSS Formatter

Paste CSS to instantly get a neatly indented version and a minified version.

Updates instantly as you type

01 / Fast steps

  1. Paste your CSS.
  2. Read the beautified and minified versions instantly, updated as you type.

02 / Best for

  • Cleaning up CSS copied from a browser inspector or CMS.
  • Shrinking a stylesheet before embedding it inline.
  • Making a minified CSS export readable again.

03 / Why here

  • Produces both a beautified and a minified version at once.
  • Updates instantly as you type.
  • Runs entirely in your browser.

04 / Keep in mind

  • Uses a lightweight formatter, not a full CSS parser, so unusual constructs like braces inside string values may not format correctly.
