Messy SQL slows down debugging, code reviews, and incident response. Whether you inherited a one-line query from a log or you're cleaning up a stored procedure before deploy, a good formatter saves time.
Why format SQL?
Readable SQL helps you:
- Spot missing JOIN conditions and logic bugs faster
- Review pull requests without squinting at minified queries
- Share queries with analysts and stakeholders
- Prepare examples for documentation and runbooks
