NetBeans 101 – Editor Options (Formatting)

NetBeans comes with powerful formatting tools out of the box. Think of it as a “Prettier” or “Beautifier” on steroids! It will format the code for most languages not just a few like JavaScript (JSLint). It also can be set up as a style editor as you find in Linters.

You can use whichever stylistic system you wish and use it to automatically style your code. The formatting can also be exported so you can write onece and use it on multiple systems, both computers and operating systems.
