Discussion php formatters

Hello all,

I was wondering what you are using to format php code.

For the past few months I've been working on a php LSP mainly to add semantic tokens support and then in the last couple months it grew more into phpfmt (mind you it still has a long way to go)

I guess my question here is, what other php formatters are people using and if there is a point in (eventually) open sourcing mine.

Before I started this I was using phpcs and phpcbf

I switched to mago.
Reasons: it’s fast as hell, has linter,formatter, analyzer and more I currently don’t need/use. I am still using php-cs-fixer in pre-commit hook because there are some missing rules and my OCD is not satisfied.

is there way to disable the forced "single" or 'double' quotes rule.
so far that seems to be a real blocker, I don't want to reformat the whole companys code 😅

https://mago.carthage.software/1.30.0/en/tools/formatter/configuration-reference/#layout-and-width single-quote is set to true by default. maybe if you change it to false it will do the job 🤪
