04 · FAQ

Questions people actually ask.

The short answers — with the long ones one tap away.

How do I format CSS with this tool?+

Paste your CSS into the box, or drop in a .css file. Pick your indent size and any options, then tap Format CSS. The pretty-printed, color-coded result appears on the right, ready to copy or download.

Is my CSS uploaded to a server?+

No. Formatting, beautifying, minifying and validating all happen locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device, so it's safe to use with private or sensitive CSS.

Can this tool find errors in invalid CSS?+

Yes. If your CSS can't be parsed, the tool reports what went wrong along with the exact line and column where the problem starts, so you can jump straight to the fix.

Can I minify CSS instead of formatting it?+

Yes. Tap Minify to collapse your CSS into a single compact line with no extra whitespace — useful for shrinking stylesheets before deploying to production.

Can I sort the properties in my CSS rules?+

Yes. Turn on Sort properties A→Z before formatting, and every rule's declarations are reordered alphabetically, which makes diffing two stylesheets much easier.

What indentation options are available?+

You can choose 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or a tab character for indentation. Minified output ignores this setting since it removes all whitespace.

Can this tool fix broken CSS automatically?+

Yes. Turning on Auto-fix common errors adds missing semicolons, closes unclosed brackets, removes duplicate whitespace, and fixes common typos before validating — which resolves many of the small mistakes that break strict CSS.

Is this CSS formatter free to use?+

Yes, it's completely free with no account, no sign-up, and no limit on how many times you use it.
