Beautified SQL

Copy
SQL Query After Formatting

    name,
    age,
    email
FROM
    users
WHERE
    status = 'active'
    AND (
        signup_date >= '2023-01-01'
        OR last_login IS NOT NULL
    )
ORDER BY
    signup_date DESC,
    name;

Example 2: Minified SQL with multiple statements vs Beautified SQL

Minified SQL

Copy
SQL Query Before Beautification
INSERT INTO orders(id,user_id,amount,created_at)VALUES(1023,45,159.99,'2024-06-05 14:22:00');UPDATE inventory SET quantity=quantity-1 WHERE product_id=77;

Beautified SQL

Copy
SQL Query After Beautification
INSERT INTO
    orders (
        id,
        user_id,
        amount,
        created_at
    )
VALUES
    (
        1023,
        45,
        159.99,
        '2024-06-05 14:22:00'
