I want a formatter for Coq code. When I code in other programming languages, I don't want to care about code style. I just want to hit a button to format everything after typing some mess. I tried make beautify and even though the command produces equivalent Coq code, the code has unexpected formatting. Is there another formatter for Coq?

The Makefile is produced with the coq_makefile command. I installed Coq through the Coq Platform by running sudo snap install coq-prover. I just ran it yesterday, so the version that I have is very recent.

You're not the only one who would like to have a formatter :) Relevant discussion: https://coq.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/237977-Coq-users/topic/styleguide

Beautify has not really been maintained lately. Someone could revive it (try to make it produce better formatting), but it is most likely that the next Coq formatter will come as a separate tool, maintained independently, and communicating with Coq through an interface such as SerAPI.

there was some progress here, but I think the author got busy with a new job: https://github.com/appliedfm/vstyle-tools
