PHP Formatter — PSR-12 Beautifier for PHP Source Code

How to use

1. 1 Paste PHP source.
2. 2 Pick brace style and indent size.
3. 3 Toggle whether to normalize short opening tags.
4. 4 Copy or download the result.

Why use this tool

• No client-side PHP parser exists — this is a rule-based reformatter that handles braces and indent reliably.
• PSR-12 friendly defaults: K&R braces, 4-space indent.
• Pure client-side — your code never leaves the browser.
• For an authoritative format, run <code class="rounded bg-slate-100 px-1 text-xs dark:bg-slate-800">vendor/bin/pint</code> or <code class="rounded bg-slate-100 px-1 text-xs dark:bg-slate-800">php-cs-fixer</code> locally.

Frequently asked questions

What is PHP Formatter?

A PHP Formatter is a tool that reformats PHP source code in the browser using PSR-12-friendly defaults. It offers a brace-style toggle and tag-opener normalization, reindenting code for consistent layout and readability. Because it runs entirely client-side, the source code stays on the user's device.
