Objective-C Formatter is a tool for formatting Objective-C code. It can automatically format the Objective-C code into a standardized style according to the rules set by the user, making the code structure clearer and easier to maintain. In addition, Objective-C Formatter also supports automatic formatting and cleaning of comments, spaces, line breaks and other elements in the code to improve the readability and cleanliness of the code.

Code formatter FAQ

How do I format code on this page?

Paste code into the left editor or load a file, choose the options you need, and select Format. Review the result on the right, then copy or save it.

Why might the formatter report an error?

The input must match the selected language or syntax. Check incomplete statements, unmatched brackets or quotes, and a dialect or mode that does not match the input, then format again.

How does a code formatter work?

A code formatter reads language-aware tokens and nested structures, then rewrites indentation, spacing, and line breaks according to a consistent rule set. It does not compile or run the program, so formatting is not a correctness or security check.

Which settings are recommended for this language?

For Google-style Objective-C, start with 2 spaces and 100 columns; match the repository when an Xcode project uses 4-space indentation. Choose LLVM, Google, Chromium, Mozilla, WebKit, or GNU style, then set the indent width and column limit for Objective-C code.
