SQL Formatter & Minifier

Format ugly SQL into beautiful, readable code or minify it for production. Supports common dialects with smart keyword casing, indentation, and comment stripping. Essential for DBAs, developers, and code reviews.

Input SQL (edits are live)Standard SQL
Indent
Formatted
SELECT u.id, u.name, o.total
  FROM users u
  LEFT
  JOIN orders o
   ON o.user_id = u.id
   WHERE u.active = true
   ORDER BY o.created_at DESC
   LIMIT 20;
Minified
SELECT u.id,u.name,o.total FROM users u LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.user_id=u.id WHERE u.active=true ORDER BY o.created_at DESC LIMIT 20;

Client-only. Supports common SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE + WITH CTEs. Great for PRs and production logs.

Why Clean SQL Matters

Messy SQL is hard to review, debug, and maintain. Consistent formatting makes differences in pull requests obvious and helps teams catch bugs faster. Minification is useful when embedding queries in logs or sending them over the wire in constrained environments. This tool produces readable indented output for CTEs, JOINs, GROUP BY and multi-row INSERTs while also offering a one-line minified form.

How to use effectively

  1. Paste any query — even from logs or query builders.
  2. Toggle uppercase and indent size until it matches your team style.
  3. Copy the formatted version for code reviews or the minified for compact storage.

Tips

  • Format before committing or sharing.
  • Use minify only when size actually matters (logs, migration comments).
  • Uppercase keywords improve readability for most teams.
