- Copy the result.
Frequently asked questions
- What's the difference between Format and Minify?
- Format adds clean indentation so the markup is easy to read and edit. Minify strips whitespace, comments, and redundant attributes to produce the smallest valid output — useful for shipping to production, not for editing.
- What powers this?
- Formatting uses Prettier, the same formatter widely used in code editors; minifying uses html-minifier-terser, which also minifies any inline <style> and <script> blocks it finds.
- Is my code uploaded anywhere?
- No — everything runs entirely in your browser. The code never leaves your device.
How GetByteRush compares
Most free tools for this online work the same way: you upload your file to their server, wait, then download the result — which means your file (and often your email, for a "free" account) sits on someone else's infrastructure. Here's the actual difference:
| Feature | GetByteRush | Typical online tools |
|---|---|---|
| Code ever leaves your device | No — processed in this tab | Yes, uploaded to process |
| Account required | Never | Often, past a certain usage level |
