Same, I don't mind having an alternative to webpack, but competing against prettier is going to be an uphill battle.

- ratww 7y agoI don't know. The whole point of using Prettier is that you're delegating your style choices to someone else. And there were already some (very small) breaking changes between Prettier v1 and v2. Changing from Prettier to something else doesn't sound like that big of a change, as long as Rome's formatter is not too ugly or changes are too drastic.
- kevmo314 7y agoIt's more of a network effect though that keeps me using prettier. These days I end up using prettier in codebases so my code looks like everyone else's, not just so it's self-consistent. It just makes it easier to read. You're right though if Rome has a formatter that looks nice I suppose I wouldn't care, but at that point it's sort of like why not just use prettier?
