prettier
Easier on eyes
Prettier is the comparative form of pretty, meaning more attractive or pleasing to look at: She's even prettier in person.
It can also intensify the comparative of other qualities: a prettier penny than expected, a prettier mess than before.
In tech contexts, Prettier is a code formatting tool, but lowercase prettier remains purely comparative.
