HTML Beautifier

An HTML beautifier takes HTML that is minified, machine-generated, or inconsistently indented and rewrites the whitespace so the document's structure is easy to read, indenting each nested element one level deeper than its parent. It does not change the content or the meaning of your markup; it changes only the layout of the source text. Xevon Tools' HTML Beautifier accepts any HTML, whether it was compressed for production, copied out of a CMS, or scraped from a live page, and produces clean output with predictable indentation and line breaks at every level of nesting, which makes parent-child relationships and the overall hierarchy immediately visible. A companion minify mode does the reverse, stripping comments and insignificant whitespace to produce the smallest output for shipping, and you switch between the two with a single toggle. There is one honest caveat worth knowing: HTML treats some whitespace as significant. Inside a pre or textarea element, and in the spaces between inline elements such as anchors or spans, added or removed whitespace can change what the browser actually displays. For the vast majority of markup this is irrelevant, but if your snippet relies on those cases, give the formatted result a quick look before using it. The tool also does not validate or repair markup; if you feed it HTML with a missing closing tag or invalid nesting, it formats that structure as-is rather than guessing at a fix, which keeps the output faithful to your input. It handles large documents without locking up the tab, and because all formatting happens through a client-side library in your browser, unreleased page markup and internal templates never leave your machine. Reach for it when you need to read a minified production page, inspect generated markup, standardize indentation across a team, or prepare a snippet for documentation.
