Questions, answered.
01Does this validate my HTML?
No, it uses the browser’s native, tolerant HTML parser, so malformed markup is auto-corrected rather than flagged as an error.
02Do I get both a beautified and a minified version?
Yes, both are generated at once from the same input.
03Is HTML Formatter free to use?
Yes, HTML Formatter is completely free, with no sign-up and no usage limits. It runs entirely in your browser, so your data never leaves your device.
