Prettier is an opinionated code formatter that enforces a consistent coding style across your codebase. It automatically formats your code to follow a predefined set of rules, eliminating debates over formatting preferences and ensuring a clean and uniform code structure. Prettier supports various programming languages like JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and more, making it a versatile tool for maintaining code quality.

Compared to other code formatting tools like ESLint or TSLint, Prettier focuses solely on code formatting and does not perform linting or static analysis. Its simplicity and ease of use make it a popular choice for developers looking to streamline their code formatting process.
