+# root = true
+
+[*]
+# Non-configurable Prettier behaviors
+charset = utf-8
+insert_final_newline = true
+# Caveat: Prettier won’t trim trailing whitespace inside template strings, but your editor might.
+# trim_trailing_whitespace = true
+
+# Configurable Prettier behaviors
+# (change these if your Prettier config differs)
+end_of_line = lf
+indent_style = space
+indent_size = 2
+max_line_length = 80

+
+```ini
+[*]
+charset = utf-8
+insert_final_newline = true
+end_of_line = lf
+indent_style = space
+indent_size = 2
+max_line_length = 80
