CSS Formatter & Minifier

Beautify CSS for readability or minify it for smaller output.

How the CSS formatter works

Step 1

Paste your CSS

Add a stylesheet or a CSS snippet into the input box.

Step 2

Format or minify

Format adds consistent indentation and line breaks for readability. Minify removes unnecessary whitespace for a smaller file.

Step 3

Copy the output

Use Copy output to grab the result for your stylesheet, build pipeline or code editor.

Frequently asked questions

Does formatting change how my CSS behaves?

No. Formatting and minifying only change whitespace and layout; the resulting styles behave the same as the original rules.

Can I use this on large stylesheets?

Yes, though very large files may take a little longer to process since everything runs in your browser rather than on a server.

Is my CSS uploaded anywhere?

No. Formatting and minifying happen locally on your device.
