> In code styleguides, maximum line length rules are often set to 100 or 120. However, when humans write code, they don't strive to reach the maximum number of columns on every line. Developers often use whitespace to break up long lines for readability. In practice, the average line length often ends up well below the maximum.
> Prettier, on the other hand, strives to fit the most code into every line. With the print width set to 120, prettier may produce overly compact, or otherwise undesirable code.
- If the number of quotes outweighs the other quote, the quote which is less used will be used to format the string - Example: `"I'm double quoted"` results in `"I'm double quoted"` and `"This \"example\" is single quoted"` results in `'This "example" is single quoted'`.
-`"all"` - Trailing commas wherever possible (including function arguments). This requires node 8 or a [transform](https://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/syntax-trailing-function-commas/).
At first glance, avoiding parentheses may look like a better choice because of less visual noise.
However, when Prettier removes parentheses, it becomes harder to add type annotations, extra arguments or default values as well as making other changes.
Consistent use of parentheses provides a better developer experience when editing real codebases, which justifies the default value for the option.
These two options can be used to format code starting and ending at a given character offset (inclusive and exclusive, respectively). The range will extend:
Both the `babel` and `flow` parsers support the same set of JavaScript features (including Flow type annotations). They might differ in some edge cases, so if you run into one of those you can try `flow` instead of `babel`. Almost the same applies to `typescript` and `babel-ts`. `babel-ts` might support JavaScript features (proposals) not yet supported by TypeScript, but it's less permissive when it comes to invalid code and less battle-tested than the `typescript` parser.

Prettier can restrict itself to only format files that contain a special comment, called a pragma, at the top of the file. This is very useful when gradually transitioning large, unformatted codebases to prettier.
Prettier can insert a special @format marker at the top of files specifying that the file has been formatted with prettier. This works well when used in tandem with the `--require-pragma` option. If there is already a docblock at the top of the file then this option will add a newline to it with the @format marker.
By default, Prettier will wrap markdown text as-is since some services use a linebreak-sensitive renderer, e.g. GitHub comment and BitBucket. In some cases you may want to rely on editor/viewer soft wrapping instead, so this option allows you to opt out with `"never"`.
Whether or not to indent the code inside `<script>` and `<style>` tags in Vue files. Some people (like [the creator of Vue](https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/3888#issuecomment-459521863)) don’t indent to save an indentation level, but this might break code folding in your editor.
Valid options:
-`"false"` - Do not indent script and style tags in Vue files.
-`"true"` - Indent script and style tags in Vue files.
1. Configure Prettier to run in your CI pipeline using [`--check` flag](cli.md#--check). If you use Travis CI, set [the `autocrlf` option](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/customizing-the-build#git-end-of-line-conversion-control) to `input` in `.travis.yml`.
Control whether Prettier formats quoted code embedded in the file.
When Prettier identifies cases where it looks like you've placed some code it knows how to format within a string in another file, like in a tagged template in JavaScript with a tag named `html` or in code blocks in Markdown, it will by default try to format that code.
Sometimes this behavior is undesirable, particularly in cases where you might not have intended the string to be interpreted as code. This option allows you to switch between the default behavior (`auto`) and disabling this feature entirely (`off`).
Valid options:
-`"auto"`– Format embedded code if Prettier can automatically identify it.
-`"off"` - Never automatically format embedded code.
