Install with `yarn`:

```
yarn add prettier --dev --exact
```

You can install it globally if you like:

```
yarn global add prettier
```

*We're using `yarn` but you can use `npm` if you like:*

```
npm install --save-dev --save-exact prettier
# or globally
npm install --global prettier
```

> We recommend pinning an exact version of prettier in your `package.json`
> as we introduce stylistic changes in patch releases.
