This runs all the lint commands at once.

npm run prettier

This runs Prettier to automatically format the entire codebase.

npm run prettier-dev

This runs Prettier on only your changed files. This is intended for development.

Prettier

We use Prettier to automatically format our JavaScript code and stop all the on-going debates over styles. As a developer, you have to run it (with npm run prettier-dev) before submitting a Pull Request.
