Frequently asked questions
Is there an official SQL formatting standard?
No — SQL itself is standardized (with vendor variations), but how you format it is entirely a matter of convention. This tool follows the style taught in most SQL courses and used across the industry: uppercase keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, JOIN...), one major clause per line, and column lists or AND/OR conditions broken one item per line and indented under their clause.
What kinds of queries does this handle?
It's built for everyday SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements, including JOINs, GROUP BY / HAVING, ORDER BY, and subqueries in a WHERE clause. It's not a full parser for every dialect's DDL syntax (CREATE TABLE, stored procedures, vendor-specific extensions) — those will still get keyword casing applied but not the same clause-aware line breaking.
Does this change what my query actually does?
No — only whitespace, line breaks, and keyword casing change. String contents, quoted identifiers, comments, and the actual structure of the query are left exactly as written.
Is my SQL uploaded anywhere?
No. Formatting happens entirely in your browser — nothing you paste in, including any table or column names, is sent to a server.
