What is SQL Formatter?
SQL Formatter is a developer tool that takes messy, single-line, or poorly indented SQL queries and reformats them into clean, readable code.
It uppercases SQL keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN), adds proper newlines between clauses, indents columns and subqueries, and highlights syntax in the output. It also includes a minify option to collapse formatted SQL back to a single line for use in code or scripts.
