Originally started as a very lean alternative to prettier-eslint which focuses on the basics of integrating Prettier and linting infrastructure into one tool. Includes a CLI tool called effective-prettier. Nowadays it supports both eslint and stylelint together with prettier. It executes these tool in memory using their APIs instead of touching files multiple times on the disc.

For some users linting rules tweak the behavior of prettier results. Combining both tools is typically quite a configuration hassle. The easier way to write a new tool which combines both... or even all three of the most relevant front-end tools into one CLI. Welcome effective-prettier.

You are in one solution to combine linting with prettification:

• ✅ Prettier
• ✅ ESLint
• ✅ Stylelint

With a hell lot of nice gimmicks:

• In memory transformation + write on change only
• Respects ignore files
• File format auto-detection
• Multi-threading with glob-based file lists

Files are only written and touched when changes were made to the content.

Ignore files by Prettier and ESLint/Stylelint are used in combination for all files.

Massively faster when using a glob pattern through its threading infrastructure.
