What is PHP Beautifier

Written by Giorgos Kostas. Last reviewed: April 18, 2026

PHP Beautifier reformats PHP source using either PSR-12 style or its default formatter, then displays the code in a syntax-highlighted editor.

Use it to clean up pasted snippets, standardize indentation, or inspect formatted PHP before copying it into your project.

Why use it

• Apply PSR-12 or default formatting to pasted PHP.
• Make compressed snippets easier to read and review.
• Inspect PHP syntax with highlighting in the input and output editors.
• Copy consistently indented PHP into your project.
• Review generated PHP without executing it.

Features

• PSR-12 or default PHP formatting
• Syntax highlighting in PHP input and output editors
• Cleaner indentation for readable code
• Copy formatted PHP source
• PHP source is formatted but never executed

How to use PHP Beautifier

1. Paste PHP source. Enter PHP code in the input editor or upload a PHP file.
2. Choose a style and format. Select PSR-12 or Default, then click Format.
3. Review and copy. Inspect the highlighted output and copy the formatted PHP.

Example (before/after)

<?php function total($items){return array_sum(array_map(fn($item)=>$item["price"],$items));}

<?php
function total($items)
{
    return array_sum(
        array_map(fn ($item) => $item["price"], $items)
    );
}
