Questions

What SQL dialects are supported?
The formatter supports PostgreSQL (RETURNING, ILIKE, :: casting), MySQL (backtick quoting, LIMIT offset), SQLite, SQL Server (TOP, NOLOCK), and standard SQL.
How is this different from the basic SQL formatter?
This formatter recognizes dialect-specific keywords and syntax, properly handles different quoting styles, and formats dialect-specific clauses like RETURNING or ON CONFLICT.
Does the SQL dialect formatter handle CTEs and window functions?
Yes, Common Table Expressions (WITH clauses), window functions (OVER, PARTITION BY), and lateral joins are formatted with proper indentation across all supported dialects.
Can I switch between SQL dialects for the same query?
Yes, select the target dialect from the dropdown and the formatter will apply dialect-specific rules. You can reformat the same query under different dialects to compare output.
