It's better to specify your formatting requirements, rather than hoping that I will be using the same editor as you. By all means provide editor setup or formatter control files. But please tell me what you want so I can configure my tool chain and maybe commit it back to your project.

Hey! Thanks for your concern. Kindly read the very first line of this article. Also, changing your code editor settings for a single project does not seem very optimum. This just seems like grunt work to me TBH. Hence the reason why .editorconfig file exists because it works across multiple IDEs. You can read more about it here

Peace ✌🏻
