Online PHP code formatting tool - one-click beautification, indentation, and optimization of PHP code

This tool, based on @prettier/plugin-php, provides professional online PHP code formatting and beautification. Simply paste your code and it'll instantly adjust indentation, optimize structure, and unify typography, making your PHP code cleaner and more readable.

Inspiration

In everyday PHP development, confusing indentation and inconsistent typography often hinder team efficiency. To address this pain point, we've built a lightweight online PHP formatter based on Prettier and its official plugin. This allows developers to quickly unify their code style anytime, anywhere, without relying on cumbersome local configuration.

How to Use

1. Open the tool page and paste the PHP code into the input area at the top of the page.

2. Click "Format" to automatically optimize indentation and beautify the layout.

3. Copy the formatted PHP code with one click and apply it directly to your project.

   Easy to use, fully online, and suitable for temporary processing and cross-device use.

Application Scenarios

• Quickly organize messy PHP snippets or complete project files.

• Standardize indentation and formatting before submitting code to maintain a consistent team style.

• Display standardized PHP examples for learning or demonstrations to improve readability.

• Assist in debugging, avoiding difficulties caused by indentation errors or unclear structure.

Implementation Principle

This tool uses Prettier and the official plugin @prettier/plugin-php to parse and reformat code. This only adjusts the formatting, leaving the logic and functionality unchanged. It supports common configurations such as indentation control, bracket wrapping, and quote styles. We rely on the long-term maintenance of the Prettier community to ensure formatting stability and consistency.

FQA

1. Does code formatting affect PHP logic?

   No. The tool only adjusts indentation and formatting; it does not modify statement logic or function implementation.

2. Will my code be saved or uploaded?

   No. The tool runs only in the browser; no data is stored.

3. Why am I getting a syntax error?

   This is usually due to incomplete or incorrect syntax in the PHP code itself. Please check for missing semicolons, curly braces, or tags before formatting.

4. What is the difference between this tool and a PHP linter?

   Formatters focus on typography and indentation consistency, while linters focus on coding standards and potential errors. It is recommended to use them together to improve both readability and code quality.
