What is a TypeScript formatter?

A TypeScript formatter cleans and indents TS files, aligning imports, interfaces, types, and functions. It highlights common syntax issues so you can debug faster. Use it for frontend, backend, or library code without opening an IDE. Everything runs locally for privacy.

How to use the TypeScript formatter

  1. Paste TS code: Add components, utilities, or declaration files.
  2. Choose indentation: Select 2 or 4 spaces to match your style guide.
  3. Get results: View formatted code instantly. Copy it or download as a .ts file.

Why use this formatter?

  • Readable reviews: Share tidy code in pull requests or docs.
  • Quicker debugging: Clear indentation exposes missing braces, commas, or generics.
  • Local privacy: No code leaves your device.

Use case 1: React components

Format TSX components before code review to highlight prop types and hooks clearly.

Use case 2: API clients

Beautify generated clients to inspect typings and method signatures.

Use case 3: Library declarations

Clean up .d.ts files to ensure exported types are easy to scan.

Examples

Basic example

Input: type User={id:number;name:string}
Output:

type User = {
  id: number;
  name: string;
};

Advanced example

Input: Minified TSX component with generics and hooks
Output: Multi-line, indented component showing props, state, and return JSX clearly.

Common errors

Unterminated generics

If parsing fails, check for missing > in generic types. The formatter points to the first issue.

JSX syntax issues

Unclosed tags in TSX will break formatting. Close all tags before retrying.

Tips and proven approaches

  • Keep 2-space indent to match common TS/JS style guides.
  • Run your project linter after formatting for rule-specific fixes.
  • Pair with the JavaScript formatter for plain JS files.

Frequently Asked Questions
The TypeScript formatter takes unformatted TypeScript and reformats it with proper indentation, spacing, and style conventions while preserving all type annotations, making it much easier to read and maintain.
No, formatting only changes whitespace and formatting. The actual code logic, functions, type annotations, and values remain exactly the same, so your code will execute identically.
The formatter will attempt to parse and format valid TypeScript. If there are syntax errors, it will display an error message to help you identify the issue.
