Tidy Dog™
A sharper home for untidy code.
Estimate source language, inspect alternatives and format supported code with deterministic parsers. Review the diff before using the result.
Text-only workspace. Never executes input. General limit: 200,000 UTF-16 units per editor; some operations have tighter limits.
Private session · history disabled
Opt in to store up to five recent text transformations on this device. Never stored on an account or synchronized. Files are never included. Disable history stops new saves; Clear history deletes saved items.
How to use Tidy Dog™
Paste input, select a command and its options, then run the transformation. Review diagnostics before copying or downloading the result. Input is not executed.
Detection is a heuristic, not a calibrated probability. Short snippets and polyglot files can match several languages. Choose a manual override when needed.
Parser-backed formatting covers HTML, CSS, SCSS, Less, JavaScript/JSX, TypeScript/TSX, JSON/JSON-LD, XML/SVG, Markdown, YAML, SQL and GraphQL. Other registry languages are detection-only; the app refuses to invent a formatter. Keep a backup and run your own tests; formatting is not a proof of semantic equivalence.
Privacy and boundaries
Editor contents stay in your browser. Transformations run in a disposable worker and are never sent to a formatting or AI service. History starts disabled; enabling it writes text to local browser storage only. Clearing that history removes this tool’s saved entries, not data saved by other applications. The surrounding website may load its normal navigation and analytics, but the utility workspace is excluded from content-interaction capture.
Use the labeled operation selector for the available capabilities. Keyboard users can reach every control with Tab; Ctrl or Command plus K opens the command palette. Copy requires clipboard permission. Download creates a local text file. Clear removes the current workspace; it does not automatically delete an opted-in history. Inputs and outputs are always rendered as text, never as a runnable preview.
What is source-code formatting?
Formatting reorganizes the presentation of source code using a language-aware parser and style rules. It is different from compilation, debugging or execution.
