markdownlint VS prettier

There are more linting tools that I won't go into deeply, but you can integrate them with lint-staged. For example, you can lint your CSS content with Stylelint, or even lint your README files with markdownlint, etc.

Some of Djot's features can be achieved by using markdownlint though: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint

markdownlint - A Node.js style checker and lint tool for Markdown/CommonMark files.

Improvements - The prefer-some-in-iteration rule will by default no longer flag iteration where a sub-attribute is used, like input[_].item - The use-in-operator rule has been extended to include more types of items, leading to better discovery of locations where in should be used - Remove replace directive in go.mod that made hard to integrate Regal as a library - The project now uses markdownlint to ensure consistent formatting of its documentation - The Go API now allows reading custom rules from an fs.FS filesystem

People are always looking for simple projects to learn Rust with, so here's one for anyone who's currently looking. Port markdownlint to Rust. Markdownlint is ~3.3k lines of JavaScript (including the lint implementation themselves!), so I reckon it's pretty doable.

The markdownlint VS Code extension is powered by the Node library of the same name. Its usage is quite similar to ESLint. It has a set of rules that can be configured, errors are highlighted, and you can automatically fix simple errors.

There are no compilers in the Flutter project that guarantee to find issues in README.md or CHANGELOG.md files. To remedy this, the Markdownlint plugin provides a set of guidelines to encourage Markdown file standards and uniformity. You can use this extension to check for problems locally and verify the content before publishing it live. Browse the user manual to learn more about rules.

In this post, I also use ESLint + Standard JS as my code formatting tools. Formatting JS/TS code by using ESLint is also subjective and opinionated, arguably most people would rather use Prettier instead, which provides more configurable options.

Let's be honest - setting up tools for a new project can be a frustrating process. Especially when you want to jump straight to coding part. This is often the case with ESLint and Prettier, two popular tools in the JavaScript ecosystem that can sometimes interfere with each other when it comes to code formatting. Fortunately, there's a simple solution to this process, and it's called eslint-plugin-prettier.

From my point of view, Prettier doesn't work well for styling with utility classes. For a discussion see Prettier#7863 or Prettier#5948.

Prettier: An opinionated code formatter that enforces a consistent code style.

Automating code checks with static code analysis allows us to enforce code styling effectively. By integrating tools into our workflow, we can identify errors at an early stage, while coding instead of blocking us at the end. For instance, flake8 checks Python code for style and errors, eslint performs similar checks for JavaScript, and prettier automatically formats code to maintain consistency.

So anyways, I wanted to hook up Emacs with Astro support. For now, I've just been roughing it out there and running Prettier by itself and turning off save on format and auto-complete. It's been scary.

If you're a developer, you're surely familiar with Prettier and ESLint. With over 8 years of existence, they have established themselves as references in the JavaScript ecosystem.

prettier is used to format you text

No formatting inconsistencies: The committed code should follow the organization's code formatting standards(prettier or pretty-quick).

Let’s walk through the steps for a one-time setup to configure husky pre-commit and pre-push hooks, ESLint with code styles conventions, prettier code formatter, and lint-staged. Husky automatically runs a script on each commit or push. This is useful for linting files to enforce code styles that keeps the entire code base following conventions.
