Using the Go Formatter is simple:
This tool helps you auto-beautify Go code:
β’ Auto Indentation β Detect code block nesting levels
β’ Brace Style β K&R (same-line {) or Allman (next-line {)
β’ Operator Spacing β Add proper spaces around operators
β’ Blank Line Cleanup β Remove consecutive blank lines
β’ Go-style indentation β Default Tab indentation (gofmt standard)
Note: This tool provides basic formatting without complex AST analysis. All processing is done locally in your browser.
No. Formatting only adjusts whitespace and layout. The code remains functionally identical.
K&R places the opening brace on the same line (if (x) {), while Allman places it on a new line. Both are valid; it's a matter of preference.
Supports basic Go syntax structures including functions, classes, and control flow. For complex nesting, consider using an IDE formatter.
