Our free HTML Prettifier & Indenter provides an interactive solution to clean up messy HTML5 markup, un-minify dense single-line web templates, and structure nested DOM nodes with clean, professional indentation. Choose your preferred indentation spacing—including 2 Spaces, 4 Spaces, or Tab (\t). Perfect for web developers, code reviewers, and students, the tool handles void self-closing tags (``, `
`, ``) seamlessly. Operating 100% client-side in secure local JavaScript, your HTML code is processed instantly inside your browser without any server uploads.

Select your preferred indentation size (2 Spaces, 4 Spaces, or Tab) and click 'Prettify HTML'.
Inspect the line count and byte size metrics, then copy the indented HTML code or download pretty.html.
Parses HTML elements, tracks indentation depth, and correctly formats nested tags without disrupting void self-closing elements.
Choose between 2 Spaces, 4 Spaces, or Tab (\t) characters to seamlessly conform to your project's styling conventions.
All HTML parsing, tag indentation, and file downloads execute locally in your browser. No files or code blocks are ever transmitted to external servers.
An HTML Prettifier (Beautifier) tokenizes raw markup strings into structural DOM nodes, calculating nesting depth to insert uniform whitespace line breaks between parent elements and child tags.
The parser identifies standard W3C void HTML tags (<img>, <input>, <br>, <hr>, <meta>, <link>) or self-closing XML tags (/>) to prevent incorrect indentation level increments.
Formatting code with clean 2-space or 4-space indentation drastically improves codebase maintainability, peer code review productivity, and Git diff readability without affecting runtime browser rendering behavior.
