Example 1: Minified JSX vs Beautified JSX
Minified React Code
import React from"react";const Card=({title,items=[]})=>(<div className="card"><h3>{title}</h3><ul>{items.map((it,i)=><li key={i}>{it}</li>)}</ul></div>);export default Card;
Beautified React Code
import React from 'react'; const Card = ({ title, items = [] }) => ( <div className="card"> <h3>{title}</h3> <ul> {items.map((it, i) => ( <li key={i}>{it}</li> ))} </ul> </div> ); export default Card;
Example 2: Minified JSX with hooks and handlers vs Beautified JSX
Minified JSX
import React,{useState}from"react";export default function Counter(){const[count,setCount]=useState(0);return<div><span>{count}</span><button onClick={()=>setCount(c=>c+1)}>Inc</button></div>}
Formatted JSX
import React, { useState } from 'react'; export default function Counter() { const [count, setCount] = useState(0); return ( <div> <span>{count}</span> <button onClick={() => setCount((c) => c + 1)}>Inc</button> </div> ); }
Customization options
Below are the settings you can adjust to get the exact JSX output you want after formatting.
Option | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
Line Length | 120 | Wrap lines and JSX props at this character limit |
Tab Size | 2 | Spaces used per indentation level for nested JSX and JavaScript |
Use Tabs | False | When enabled indent using actual tab characters instead of spaces |
Semicolons | False | Toggle to add semicolons at the end of statements to match project style |
Single Quotes | False | When enabled use single quotes for strings and JSX attributes where valid |
Trailing Commas | ES5 | Control trailing comma behavior in arrays objects and function parameters |
Bracket Spacing | False | Add spaces between object literal brackets for visual clarity |
Arrow Parens | Always | Require parentheses around single parameter arrow functions or omit them |
Line Ending | Auto | Choose end of line style such as LF CRLF CR or let the formatter detect automatically |
Why use this React beautifier and formatter
Consistent JSX formatting makes components easier to scan and debug which shortens review cycles and reduces churn in pull requests. When teams share a single style for JSX, it is simpler to onboard contributors and to keep diffs focused on logic.
Use this React formatter to normalize props layout handlers and component structure and to prepare code for review or integration. The JSX tool is fast and supports common React patterns and it integrates easily into editor workflows or CI pipelines.
Best practices and workflow
- Agree on line length tab size and quote style to prevent unnecessary diffs
- Run the React formatter in pre commit hooks so code remains consistent at commit time
- Combine formatting with ESLint to catch issues early
- Use attribute per line for complex components to improve readability and reduce merge conflicts
- Keep components small and focused to simplify formatting and testing
Conclusion
Use this React beautifier and formatter to make JSX clearer and easier to maintain. It runs in the browser with no setup and offers flexible options so you can produce formatted JSX that matches team or personal preferences.
