+The vast majority of code should be formatted, however we allow some limited

+* Other structures or function calls where layout is more readable in a particular format.

+To disable prettier for code like this, ``// prettier-ignore`` may be used on
+the line previous to where you want it disabled.
+See the `prettier ignore docs`_ for more information.
