• goformat

  7 20 0.0 Go

  Alternative to gofmt with configurable formatting style (indentation etc.)

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.

• prettyplease

  8 582 7.4 Rust

  A minimal `syn` syntax tree pretty-printer

I doubt you would want to actually use this human-consumed code, but an interesting alternative that I know of is David Tolnay's prettyplease. It tries to be lightweight and consistent for auto-generated code.
