About:
Oxfmt is a Rust-based code formatter for JavaScript and TypeScript, built on the Oxc (Oxidation Compiler) project. It prioritizes speed and deterministic output, offering a fast, drop-in alternative to tools like Prettier. Its main value is providing consistent code style with minimal configuration and maximum performance.
Key Features:
  • Extremely fast formatting powered by Rust
  • Deterministic output for consistent code style
  • Low-configuration, opinionated defaults
  • Supports modern JavaScript and TypeScript syntax
  • Integrates with the broader Oxc toolchain ecosystem
Use Cases:
  • Enforcing consistent code style in JavaScript/TypeScript projects
  • Integrating a fast formatter into CI/CD pipelines and editor tooling
  • Reducing code review friction by automatically formatting code
Alternatives:
  • prettier – More established and highly configurable, but oxfmt is significantly faster and more opinionated.
  • dprint – Another performant, plugin-based formatter; oxfmt is specifically focused on JS/TS via the Oxc parser.
