Black (code)

Black is a Python code formatter. It automatically formats Python code to adhere to a consistent style, making code more readable and maintainable. Black enforces a specific coding style, largely based on PEP 8, and aims to remove style disagreements among developers by providing a single, uncompromising formatting standard. It focuses on reformatting entire files in place, minimizing diffs and simplifying code reviews. Black is designed to be opinionated and non-configurable in most areas, though some limited configuration options are available. By automating code formatting, Black seeks to improve code quality, reduce cognitive overhead for developers, and streamline collaboration.
