You can enforce consistent C# and XML code style by applying CSharpier across your .NET repository. This opinionated formatter standardizes code style automatically, reducing formatting debates and ensuring a predictable, single style across the codebase.

An opinionated C# formatter applies a defined, predictable code style without offering extensive configuration options. You need it when your team prefers standardized formatting over debating configurable rules in .NET projects.

To integrate CSharpier into CI and PR reviews, install the dotnet tool locally or globally, configure it with a .csharpierrc file, and align it with your AGENTS.md workflow. This ensures deterministic formatting is checked and applied automatically.

Yes, CSharpier supports both C# and XML files. It formats both file types consistently across your .NET repository according to the project's standard opinionated style, ensuring unified formatting for code and markup.

The main limitation of an opinionated formatter is the lack of configurable options. If your team requires highly specific or custom formatting rules rather than a defined, predictable style, CSharpier's opinionated approach may not suit your needs.
