Questions about this tool family

Should I format or minify code?

Format code for reading and review. Minify code for delivery when the target system supports the transformation and source maps remain available.

Can a formatter fix invalid code?

A formatter can expose syntax problems, but it does not replace parsing, tests, types, or runtime verification.
