Styling the bibliography with biblatex

Question

Example bibliography displays this way right now:

[1] John Doe et al. Book Title. Publisher, 2023.

I want it to display that way:

[1] Doe J., Smith A., Parker P., Edwards J. Book Title. Publisher, 2023.

I have absolutely no idea how to do it, no matter what I try it either doesn't compile or just does nothing. I'm considering abandoning automatic bibliography packages and simply do it manually. It will take a lot of time, but at least it will work, unlike biblatex.

Here is the code:

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind}
\usepackage{biblatex} 
\usepackage{csquotes}
\addbibresource{bibliography.bib}
\title{Bibliography management}
\author{Overleaf}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\medskip
\section{First Section}
Cite \cite{author00}.
\medskip
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Bibliography file:

@book{author00,
    title = {Book Title},
    author = {John Doe and Adam Smith and Peter Parker and John Edwards},
    year = {2023},
    publisher = {Publisher},
}

Answer 1

From what I can see you only want to change the presentation of the author names. Almost all of the changes you need can be found in the introduction to biblatex customisation in Guidelines for customizing biblatex styles.

Increase maxbibnames to a high value to show all names, set giveninits to true to show only the given name initials.

Then you just need to change the name format from the default given-family to family-given.

If you don't like to see an "and" before the last author and prefer the comma instead, redefine finalnamedelim. (See e.g. Deleting the "and" inside the bibliography)

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[nottoc]{tocbibind}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[
  backend=biber,
  style=numeric,
  maxbibnames=999,
  giveninits=true,
]{biblatex}
\DeclareNameAlias{sortname}{family-given}
\DeclareNameAlias{author}{sortname}
\DeclareNameAlias{editor}{sortname}
\DeclareNameAlias{translator}{sortname}
\DeclareDelimAlias{finalnamedelim}{multinamedelim}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@book{author00,
  title     = {Book Title},
  author    = {John Doe and Adam Smith and Peter Parker and John Edwards},
  year      = {2023},
  publisher = {Publisher},
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
\section{First Section}
Cite \autocite{author00}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}
