Prettier is a popular code formatter tool that enforces a consistent code style across your project. It automatically formats your code to adhere to a predefined set of rules, eliminating the need for manual formatting and reducing code review friction. Prettier supports various programming languages like JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and more, making it a versatile choice for maintaining code consistency.

Compared to other code formatting tools like ESLint or TSLint, Prettier focuses solely on code formatting and does not perform linting. Its opinionated approach simplifies configuration and ensures consistent formatting without the need for extensive customization.
