Go Formatter
Format Go code with gofmt-style tab indentation and K&R brace placement. Inspired by the official gofmt tool — the de-facto standard for Go formatting.
What is gofmt?
gofmt is Go's official code formatting tool, included with every Go installation. Unlike most languages where formatting is a matter of style guides and personal preference, Go takes an opinionated stance: all Go code should be formatted with gofmt. This eliminates formatting debates entirely. Key rules: tabs (not spaces) for indentation, opening braces on the same line, and no trailing semicolons (the compiler inserts them).
