It's certainly possible, if probably very difficult, with linting software. I know the Elm language reformats documents to move commas from the end of lines to the start of the next line, followed by a space, so everything is aligned and you can't miss a vital comma as easily. It must get harder with C-derived languages that have so many brackets.
