Code formatting can significantly improve the accessibility of code in addition to enforcing consistency. Reviewing a how-to today on the mentor call I noticed some Python code that I felt could be formatted more accessibly. The Black project is a Python code formatter that puts readability first.
We can use the black-jupyter code formatter, or maybe something else, to do this using CI. I think the formatting can be very accessible using pre-commit.ci, so formatting can be done automatically by posting a comment containing the magic words "pre-commit.ci autofix" to any PR. We can use PR templates to instruct PR authors of this as well.
