This was something I wasn't really expecting when I started working on prettier. It was a strong selling point when people adopted it within Facebook.
I still can't believe that it only took a year between the first commit of prettier and 100% of Facebook massive codebase to be completely formatted using prettier.
Prettier is also growing extremely quickly in open source. It's now at 3.7 million downloads a week, compared to 6 million for React.
- badfrog 8y agoI didn't get to say this before I quit working at FB, but thank you for building prettier! It really made writing and reviewing JS much less painful.
