puffin VS goformat

I have not personally used it, but have you seen Embark Studio’s Puffin? https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/puffin

Can recommend puffin. Won't be as feature complete as the others, but it's implemented in Rust and seems to work quite well once it's setup.

The goal is for it to be the simplest way to add some instrumentation profiling to your game. Basically you use puffin to profile parts of your code and then show the resulting flamegraph with in an egui window.

Likewise, gofmt implementing what you argue for resulted in the creation of goformat. There's a limit to how much you can force people on these things and, more importantly, there are formatting decisions which are more than mere bikeshedding in the eyes of the programmers to the point where they consider it more productive to maintain the formatting by hand if that's what it takes.

I'm the guy who would only run rustfmt once every week or so, when my codebase was in a clean state where I could use git gui to cherry-pick the changes that were in line with my stubborn insistence on my own style and revert the rest. I'm also the guy who would have considered writing goformat if someone else didn't.

Enough people disagree with that for goformat to exist.

Same. I used to insist on cargo +nightly rustfmt and a massive stable of "I don't have a portrait-oriented monitor" rustfmt.toml tweaks which I'd only apply when I have a clean git gui on hand to cherry-pick away unwanted changes, but I've mellowed out and the rustfmt handling of things like assert! has evolved so, now, I just put use_small_heuristics = "Max" in my rustfmt.toml as an analogue to the people who choose goformat over gofmt.

anyways, regardless of what I think, perhaps this library could help? Or at least be a good starting point to build your own: https://github.com/mbenkmann/goformat

You'd prefer that people like me follow the road the Go ecosystem did and write goformat as a replacement for gofmt or just continue to hand-format everything?

Because Go syntax is ridiculously simple, there's not much room for opinion. And even considering that, there is already an alternative gofmt with custom options.
