# Customizing Code Formatters for Project-Specific Standards

## Context
- This rule applies to all source code files within the project.
- Ensures that code formatting adheres to the project's unique coding standards, enhancing readability and maintainability.

## Requirements
- **JavaScript/TypeScript**: Use 2 spaces for indentation. Apply Prettier with a configuration file (`.prettierrc`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **Python**: Use 4 spaces for indentation. Apply Black with a configuration file (`pyproject.toml`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **Java**: Use 4 spaces for indentation. Apply Checkstyle with a configuration file (`checkstyle.xml`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **C#**: Use 4 spaces for indentation. Apply EditorConfig with a configuration file (`.editorconfig`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **C++**: Use 4 spaces for indentation. Apply ClangFormat with a configuration file (`.clang-format`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **PHP**: Use 4 spaces for indentation. Apply PHP_CodeSniffer with a configuration file (`phpcs.xml`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **Ruby**: Use 2 spaces for indentation. Apply RuboCop with a configuration file (`.rubocop.yml`) that reflects project-specific rules.
- **Go**: Use tabs for indentation. Apply gofmt with a configuration file (`.gofmt`) that reflects project-specific rules.

## Examples

// Good: JavaScript code formatted with 2-space indentation
function greet(name) {
  console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}
// Bad: JavaScript code with inconsistent indentation
function greet(name) {
    console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}
# Good: Python code formatted with 4-space indentation
def greet(name):
    print(f"Hello, {name}!")
# Bad: Python code with inconsistent indentation
def greet(name):
  print(f"Hello, {name}!")
