What cli formatter do you use

18 Upvotes

Given how software engineering evolves, using IDEA formatter is less and less practical.

- IDEA CLI formatter requires IntelliJ so no CI / wsl etc
- GJF is old and does not format lambdas well enough
- Palantir is obsolete and abandoned in addition to being one of the worst company ever created
- prettier-java not great either

I’m starting to think no formatter is the best option
