Maintaining a well-formatted code, with comments, identation and separating as much as possible each web language are good practices to facilitate the maintenance of a website or web application.

Whether it is a code that we made a long time ago or even worse, someone else’s code, it can become a real headache to format the code to better understand its logic. The good news is that there are tools to organize the code of the main web languages:

HTML

HTML Tidy is an online version of the Tidy library, which formats code from direct HTML code or a URL. In addition to organizing the code, it also makes some optimizations such as grouping div’s, unifying classes and separating CSS from HTML.

CSS

From the CSStidy library, at the time I assembled CSS Óptimo for personal use, but after giving it a design touch and translating it to Spanish, I think it can be a useful tool for everyone. It has the option to format the CSS code according to a selected degree of optimization.

Very useful to format CSS, but even more, to optimize it and reduce the weight of a stylesheet by more than 30%.

PHP

PHP Formatter is a tool that from a PHP file generates an organized and formatted code, it even encodes the images so that they do not make a request to the server and the server load is reduced.

Go to Beautify PHP

Javascript

For Javascript, beautifier.io is an excellent choice.
