Description

Nice tool, I think the best one I've discovered so far.

But why make it a new command line tool? We already have too many :) If it were a prettier plugin, then that would be great:

  • Less configuration
  • Less CLI tools
  • Automatically reformats in any IDE

Contributor guide

Study the official Prettier plugin documentation and existing plugins to understand how to create a plugin that can reformat import/export statements. Then propose a minimal implementation.
