Introducing Standard Clojure Style: no fuss code formatting
summary
A single-file zero-dependency JavaScript formatter implements a fixed-indentation algorithm with a special rule three alignment exception, pretty-prints and sorts namespace requires, and preserves vertical alignment and trailing parens unless explicitly pinned. The tool formats large codebases — ran on Metabase ~700 files ~100k lines — in under two seconds, builds to a cross-platform binary via Bun, and is designed to be portable to other languages and editors.
