On 'keep it consistent with the formatter': Prettier reads `.editorconfig` itself and converts `indent_style`, `indent_size`/`tab_width`, `max_line_length` and `end_of_line` into its own options, with `.prettierrc` taking precedence, so for a Prettier project the two files cannot disagree on those four properties unless `.prettierrc` overrides them; Prettier's search also stops at the project root rather than continuing to the file-system root as the EditorConfig spec does. On native support, the project site's list is worth reading before adding the extension to `extensions.json`: JetBrains IDEs read the file without a plugin, Neovim has built-in support since 0.9 (enabled by default, `vim.g.editorconfig = false` to disable), while VS Code needs the EditorConfig extension, so the recommended-extensions file is where the hint belongs for that editor only.
