What is SQL Formatter?
SQL Formatter takes any SQL query and reformats it for readability — consistent indentation, uppercase keywords, and proper line breaks for clauses. Each dialect (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, BigQuery, MariaDB, T-SQL, generic SQL) has subtle differences in parsing; pick the one matching your database for the most accurate output. All processing is local — your queries never leave the browser.
