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

Is this PSR-12 compliant?

It produces output close to PSR-12 (K&R braces, 4-space indent) but does not enforce every rule — line wrapping, import order, and method-spacing rules are not applied. For full PSR-12 use Pint or PHP-CS-Fixer.

Will it touch my HTML in templates?

It only reindents lines that contain PHP. Mixed HTML/PHP files may lose indentation inside the HTML sections — use a Blade-aware formatter for templates.
