formatters
Code style enforcers
Formatters are tools or programs that arrange data, text, or code into a specific structure or layout.
In computing, a formatter might shape source code to follow style conventions, convert documents between file types, or prepare storage media for use: Run the code through the formatter before committing.
The term can also refer to people who format content professionally.
