WHAT IT DOES
Give complex queries a shape you can review.
Format SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CTE, join, CASE, and nested SQL locally with a dialect-aware formatter. Choose Generic SQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, or SQL Server without executing the query or connecting to a database.
Why use it?
Use it to expose the structure of a query during review without connecting to a database or running the statement.
How to use this tool
- Paste the SQL and select the dialect used by the destination database.
- Format and inspect joins, conditions, and nested clauses. For example, layout can make a missing WHERE easier to notice but cannot decide whether an update is safe.
- Validate and test the query separately against an appropriate database environment; formatting is not execution or schema checking.
Details and limitations
- The dialect picker changes formatting grammar and keyword handling only; it never runs a parser against a server or validates schema names.
- Strings, quoted identifiers, comments, placeholders, nested queries, CTEs, joins, and CASE expressions stay in the query passed to the local formatter.
- This is a formatter, not a SQL linter or database client. A syntactically accepted query can still be invalid for a particular schema or engine version.
