Public sentimentC# developers broadly recommend CSharpier as the closest thing to Prettier for .NET, though some chafe at its no-configuration stance.³Users love the free cleanup-on-save, but some report bugs and find it less capable than ReSharper.
Biggest gotchaZero-config by design . declined indentation options mean you live with its choices⁶Runs cleanup on save by default . can rewrite files unexpectedly; configure before team rollout.
