# Using `markdownlint` with Prettier [`Prettier`](https://prettier.io) is a popular code formatter. For the most part, Prettier works seamlessly with `markdownlint`. You can `extend` the [`prettier.json`](../style/prettier.json) style to disable all `markdownlint` rules that overlap with Prettier. Other scenarios are documented below. ## List item indentation The default settings of `markdownlint` and `Prettier` are compatible and don't result in any linting violations. If `Prettier` is used with `--tab-width` set to `4` (vs. `2`), the following `markdownlint` configuration can be used: ```json { "list-marker-space": { "ul_multi": 3, "ul_single": 3 }, "ul-indent": { "indent": 4 } } ```
