About:
Clang-format is a standalone command-line tool that formats C, C++, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Objective-C code according to user-defined styles. It automatically applies consistent indentation, whitespace, and line-breaking rules, making it essential for maintaining codebases with multiple contributors. The tool integrates seamlessly into CI pipelines and IDEs to enforce style guides automatically.
Key Features:
  • Supports multiple languages including C++, Java, and JavaScript
  • Highly configurable style rules via .clang-format files
  • Automated code formatting for consistent style enforcement
  • Can format partial code snippets or full files
  • Integrates with git hooks and CI/CD pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Enforcing consistent coding standards across development teams
  • Automated code formatting in pre-commit hooks
  • Reformatting legacy codebases to modern standards
  • Integrating with code reviews to reduce style-related feedback
Alternatives:
  • clang-format@12 – Newer version with additional style options and language support
  • uncrustify – Alternative formatter with different configuration syntax, supports fewer languages
  • prettier – JavaScript-focused formatter that also handles some C-like languages but with different philosophy
