spotless VS prettier

Some code formatters such as Spotless (https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/tree/main/plugin-gradle...) allow you to format code only in files that have changes against some designated branch such as `master`. So, you check out your feature branch, make changes, do some commits, and run spotless. Only the files which have some changes between your workspace and the master branch will be formatted. This allows you to gradually format the project as and when files would be changed anyways.

As a Top-Level Apache open source project, ShardingSphere has 400 contributors as of today. Since most developers do not have the same coding style, it is not easy to standardize the project’s overall code format in a GitHub open collaboration model. To solve this issue, ShardingSphere uses Spotless to unify code formatting.

But please just use an code formatter like spotless. Or better yet set it as a pre commit hook. You will thank yourself later, and so will all of your coworkers.

I use Spotless but it’s not as opiniotated as Prettier or Black

I use Spotless and it works quite well, but there are many other options. Also good IDEs can reformat your code.

We are working on different ways to run diktat, however. For example, the integration into spotless is on its way. In the future we might consider adding support for Intellij, and if someone decides to contribute it - it will be very welcome as well.

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.

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.
