What Is the SQL Formatter?

A SQL formatter takes raw, minified, or poorly indented SQL and reformats it with consistent indentation, uppercase keywords, and structured alignment to improve readability.

Unformatted SQL in code reviews, database logs, or legacy codebases is slow to read and debug. A formatter instantly makes any query readable and maintainable.
