Why it’s great: Speeds up your coding by providing shortcuts for common React code structures.
2. Prettier — Code Formatter
Prettier is a code formatter that ensures consistent code styling throughout your project. With just a save, it auto-formats your React code (including JSX) and ensures your code looks neat, without having to think about spacing, quotes, or indentation.
Why it’s great: Consistent code style with minimal effort and less time spent on formatting.
