Prettier
Opinionated Code Formatter

Prettier is an opinionated code formatter that automatically formats code on save, supporting a wide range of languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and more. It integrates with most popular editors and development tools, eliminating style debates in code reviews. With over 10 million dependent repositories on GitHub, it is one of the most widely adopted formatting tools in the JavaScript ecosystem.
Prettier parses source code and reprints it with consistent formatting rules, integrating directly into editors and build tools to format on save.
