prettier-miscellaneous

1.5.3 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript maintenance

A fork of Prettier (v1.5.3) that aims to support minor extra options not accepted by the official Prettier project. It provides an opinionated code formatter for JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, Flow, CSS, LESS, SCSS, JSON, and GraphQL. The fork appears to be in maintenance mode with no recent updates; the last version is 1.5.3 from 2018. Unlike the actively maintained Prettier, this fork is no longer being developed, but it may still be useful for users who want specific customization options that were proposed but not merged upstream.
