Format JSX without breaking your component

A JSX formatter fixes indentation, spacing, quote style, comma style, plus small layout choices across a React component.

Use this page as a JSX beautifier when a diff looks noisy, a review blocks on style, or a teammate pasted JSX from a chat.

This tool targets day to day React editing. It also works as a react formatter, a jsx code formatter, plus a react jsx formatter for mixed markup plus JavaScript.

If you search for jsx prettier behavior, this page aims for the same outcome: consistent output, fewer debates, faster reviews.

Stop if your JSX has syntax errors

Formatting does not repair broken JSX. If your input has an unclosed tag, an invalid spread, or a missing brace, output will fail or look wrong.

Use the Validate button first when you suspect a typo. Fix the first error, then format again.

Quick workflow for clean JSX

Most formatting problems come from uneven indentation, mixed quote styles, plus copy paste from different editors.

  1. Paste JSX into the Input editor. Include the full component when possible.
  2. Run Validate to catch missing tags, bad brackets, or stray characters.
  3. Open Settings to match your repo style. Indent size, quotes, commas, plus semicolons matter for diffs.
  4. Click Format, then copy the output into your codebase.
  5. Use Minify only for sharing a short snippet, not for source control.

Before, after, plus what changed

Here is a realistic example from a React button component. The input mixes quote styles, props alignment, plus inline conditional output.

Messy input

export default function Btn({label, onClick, disabled}){return <button className={"btn "+(disabled? "is-disabled":"")} onClick={onClick} disabled={disabled}>{label}</button>}

Formatted output

export default function Btn({ label, onClick, disabled }) {return (<button
className={'btn ' + (disabled ? 'is-disabled' : '')}
onClick={onClick}
disabled={disabled}
>{label}
</button>);}

Notice what the JSX formatter did. It normalized indentation, broke a long tag into readable lines, plus made string quoting consistent.

Match the settings to your repo

Formatting works best when the toggles match the project style. Otherwise every save creates a new diff.

Indent Size plus tabs

Most React repos use 2 spaces. Some codebases use 4. Tabs often cause mixed indentation in copied snippets.

Single Quotes

Single quotes reduce escaping in JSX attribute strings. Double quotes match HTML conventions. Pick one style for the whole project.

Trailing Commas

Trailing commas help diffs in multi line objects, arrays, plus prop lists. They also reduce merge conflicts in busy files.

Semicolons

Some teams keep semicolons for clarity. Others drop them. Match ESLint rules to avoid a style war in PR review.

Arrow Function Parentheses

Parentheses around a single parameter avoid refactors later. For example, changing x => into (x, i) => stays consistent.

Where this jsx code formatter helps most

  • Pull request cleanup when a file has inconsistent whitespace plus mixed quotes.
  • Component extraction after copying markup from a prototype or a legacy template.
  • Debugging render output when JSX nesting gets deep plus indentation hides structure.
  • Docs plus snippets when you paste React code into a README, a ticket, or a knowledge base.

If you work across multiple code styles, keep this jsx beautifier open next to your editor. Use the settings panel to switch quickly.

What this tool will not do

Formatting is not a linter. It will not enforce hook rules, fix imports, or refactor logic.

It will not validate React runtime behavior. A formatted component can still throw at runtime due to missing props, invalid state, or bad side effects.

For bigger transforms, use a dedicated build pipeline. For example, the Babel Formatter helps with preset transforms.

Related formatters for the same workflow

JSX often lives next to TypeScript, GraphQL queries, plus MDX docs. Keeping every file consistent reduces review time.

JSX formatter FAQ

Practical answers for formatting JSX in React projects, plus common pitfalls that cause broken output.

What input works best in this JSX formatter?

Paste a complete component or a complete JSX block. Partial fragments work, but missing braces or tags often fail validation.

Why does Validate pass but the formatted output still looks odd?

Validation checks syntax, not style intent. Output changes based on options like quotes, trailing commas, plus arrow function parentheses. If the output differs from your repo, adjust settings to match your lint rules.

Is this a jsx beautifier or a minifier?

Both modes exist. Format produces readable output with indentation. Minify compresses JSX for sharing a short snippet. Avoid minified JSX in source control.

Does this react jsx formatter handle TypeScript?

JSX with TypeScript syntax often formats well, but complex type expressions vary by parser rules. If you hit a failure, run the <a href="https://toolexe.com/formatter/typescript-beautifier">TypeScript Beautifier</a> first, then return here for JSX style.

Will formatting change runtime behavior?

Formatting changes whitespace plus layout, not logic. Still, a malformed input block can produce different grouping after formatting. Validate first, then scan the output around nested ternaries or chained logical operators.

Do you store my JSX code?

This page formats inside your browser session. Avoid pasting secrets either way, especially API keys, tokens, or private customer data.
