Detect Prettier in any GitHub repo

Prettier is one of the linting technologies Stack Fingerprint recognises automatically when it scans a public repository.

How Prettier is detected

Stack Fingerprint reads the repo's full file tree in one GitHub API call and flags Prettier when it finds any of these:

  • Files or folders: /^\.prettierrc\./, .prettierrc, prettier.config.js
  • Dependencies in package.json: prettier

Prettier README badge

A static badge you can paste anywhere in Markdown:

Prettier badge

Markdown
![Prettier](https://img.shields.io/badge/Prettier-F7B93E?style=for-the-badge&logo=prettier&logoColor=white)

Or let the repo describe itself

Static badges go stale the moment you swap a dependency. A Stack Fingerprint card is generated from the repo, so Prettier (and everything around it) appears or disappears on its own:

[![Stack Fingerprint](https://stackfingerprint.vercel.app/api/card?repo=OWNER/REPO)](https://stackfingerprint.vercel.app/?repo=OWNER/REPO)

Replace OWNER/REPO with your repository, or open the builder to pick a theme and layout.
