Java Code Formatter & Beautifier


Java syntax and structure can be a little intimidating if you are just getting started. But as you learn the language, you'll see that code formatting is crucial for enhancing readability, maintainability and teamwork. A Java Code Formatter & Beautifier becomes a crucial tool in this situation.

If you’re also working with JavaScript or Python, try our JavaScript Formatter or Python Formatter to keep your code clean across languages.

What is a Java Code Formatter?

An application that automatically formats Java source code in accordance with a predetermined set of style guidelines is called a Java Code Formatter. Also, it modifies alignment, line breaks, indentation and spaces to guarantee that your code has a clear - consistent structure.

Although it is advantageous to make code look good, a formatter real strength is in creating a coding environment where developers can flourish. Developers can concentrate on logic, and problem solving, and functionality instead of becoming bogged down in figuring out inconsistent formatting styles when their codebase is well formatted.

What Makes a Java Code Beautifier Useful?

Several developers work together to create software, contributing to the same codebase. The placement of braces, line breaks, spacing and indentation may vary from developer to developer. A disjointed and challenging to read codebase may result from this variety in coding styles.

By removing inconsistencies and substituting a neat, standardized format, a Java beautifier ensures consistency throughout the entire codebase. As a result, the code is easier to read, collaboration is improved, and onboarding new team members is made simpler.

Unformatted Java code might look like this:

public class Main{public static void main(String[] args){System.out.println("Hello World");for(int i=0;i<\10;i++){if(i%2==0){System.out.println(i);}}}}

What Can You Do with This Java Tool?

This tool can help you with the following:

Format Java Code
Clean up sloppy code by adding suitable indentation, spacing, and line breaks in accordance with standard Java style requirements.
Multiple Style Options
Choose from common Java coding styles, such as: Google Java Style, Oracle Code Conventions, Alternatively, you can develop your own custom style.
Import Organization
Your import statements will be automatically sorted. Choose between: Specific imports (import java.util.List), Wildcard import (import java.util.*;)
Syntax Validation
Receive alerts about potential syntax problems and style violations in your Java code.
Annotation Formatting
Format Java annotations properly, using uniform spacing and alignment.
Class Member Ordering
Format class declarations using consistent member ordering (fields, constructors, and methods).
Lambda Expression Formatting
Simple formatting for lambda expressions and method references, two examples of contemporary Java features.
Code Minification
Remove comments and needless whitespace from your Java code to obfuscate it.
Download & Share
Download your prepared code or create a shareable link for code reviews.
Step by Step Guide
  • Upload .java files or paste Java code.
  • Choose your desired code style.
  • To improve the appearance of your code click "Format".
  • Check the prepared output for syntax highlighting.
  • Download or copy the completed code.

Sample Java Code for Testing
// Unformatted Java Code
public class Calculator{private double result;public Calculator(){result=0;}public void add(double x){result+=x;}public void subtract(double x){result-=x;}public double getResult(){return result;}public static void main(String[] args){Calculator calc=new Calculator();calc.add(5.2);calc.subtract(1.7);System.out.println("Result: "+calc.getResult());}}

// Formatted Result (Google Java Style):
public class Calculator {
  private double result;
  
  public Calculator() {
    result = 0;
  }
  
  public void add(double x) {
    result += x;
  }
  
  public void subtract(double x) {
    result -= x;
  }
  
  public double getResult() {
    return result;
  }
  
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Calculator calc = new Calculator();
    calc.add(5.2);
    calc.subtract(1.7);
    System.out.println("Result: " + calc.getResult());
  }
}

Java Version Support

Our tool supports all Java versions from Java 8 through Java 21, with version-specific formatting for modern features like:
