We should format code on demand

• prettier

  Prettier is an opinionated code formatter.

  

I'm a huge fan of opinionated formatters (Prettier, Black, gofmt), integrated into your editor or IDE of choice so that all code is automatically formatted - they're opinionated enough to remove most of the bikeshedding problem, it reduces whitespace and formatting changes showing up in Git, and it lets me bang out whatever code I want without having to worry about formatting it myself. In my personal opinion, this gets several of the "format code on demand" benefits without giving up the existing ecosystem.
