In their own words

CSharpier

CSharpier is a free, open-source formatter for C# and XML. It parses source files and reprints them using its own formatting rules, with only a few basic options rather than a broad set of style switches. The homepage states support through C# version 14. Configuration can be kept in .csharpierrc JSON or YAML files or in .editorconfig, covering print width, tabs, indentation, and line endings. CSharpier runs as a .NET tool, installed for one project or globally, and CSharpier.Core provides a NuGet API for formatting from code. It can check files and returns a failing exit code by default when formatting is incorrect. Automation options include pre-commit hooks, MSBuild builds, and CI/CD workflows. Integrations are listed for Visual Studio 2022 and 2019, Visual Studio Code, Rider, Neovim, Emacs, and Zed. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Code that cannot compile produces error diagnostics instead of being formatted.
