prettier-conf

1.0.5 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript abandoned

prettier-conf is a shared Prettier configuration package. Version 1.0.5 provides a single, opinionated Prettier config for consistent code formatting across JavaScript/TypeScript projects. The package is minimal, containing only a .prettierrc.json and a module export. It has no known release cadence and is not actively maintained (last update likely 2020). Differentiators: simple drop-in for consuming Prettier config, but lacks documentation and may be abandoned.
