Direct answer
The most common risk when working with javascript-formatter is accepting a plausible-looking result without checking syntax, escaping, execution behavior and edge cases.
Key takeaways
- Purpose: make structure easier to read without changing its meaning.
- Check: syntax, escaping, execution behavior and edge cases.
- Limitation: formatting or minification cannot prove code is safe or correct.
Common mistakes
- Assuming the output is correct because the operation completed. Instead, inspect syntax, escaping, execution behavior and edge cases.
- Using production or confidential material as the first test. Use a short function that receives an input and returns a value instead.
- Ignoring compatibility: formatting or minification cannot prove code is safe or correct.
