Question 1

What is a JavaScript beautifier?

Accepted Answer

A JavaScript beautifier formats minified or poorly formatted code with proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing to make it readable.

Question 2

What's the difference between beautifying and deobfuscating?

Accepted Answer

Beautifying only reformats code structure. Deobfuscating goes deeper — it renames variables, decodes encoded strings, and reverses obfuscation techniques.

Question 3

Does it change my code logic?

Accepted Answer

No. Beautifying is a pure formatting operation. It only changes whitespace, line breaks, and indentation — never the code logic.
