Prettier
In plain terms
An opinionated code formatter that standardizes style automatically.
Going deeper
Prettier reformats code to a consistent style on save or commit, ending debates over formatting. It handles spacing, quotes, and line breaks uniformly.
Under the hood
Opinionated with few options by design; pairs with ESLint (formatting vs. linting) to keep diffs clean.
Examples
Auto-formatting on save, pre-commit hooks, consistent team codebases.
Think of it like...
Like an editor who reformats every document to the exact same house style automatically.
