+# 🎨 Prettier StandardJS config
+
+This is a default configuration for Prettier to format code according to the StandardJS specification. In Havenworks by default, the [https://github.com/standard/ts-standard](`ts-standard`) package should be used so this is mainly used to format Svelte files.
+
+Installation is very simple:
+
+```bash
+yarn add -D @havenworks/prettier-standard-config
+```
+Then just the configuration (the easiest way is to set it like this in your `package.json`):
+
+```json
+// package.json
+
+{
+  "prettier": "@havenworks/prettier-standard-config"
+}
+```
