Zen Indent

Zen Indent is a VS Code extension that ensures visually consistent indentation, regardless of the actual characters or number of spaces used.

This extension normalizes the visual width of indentation in the editor, so that code looks aligned and calm—whether it's using tabs, 2-space, 4-space, or even a mix. It’s especially helpful when working in codebases with inconsistent indentation styles or when switching between projects with different formatting conventions.

✨ Features

  • Adjusts indentation rendering to ensure visual uniformity
  • Works regardless of tab/space configuration or nesting level
  • Non-intrusive: no changes to actual file contents

💡 Ideal For

  • Developers working across multiple codebases with varying styles
  • Anyone who prefers visual clarity and alignment
  • Teams wanting consistent code appearance without enforcing a specific format

Zen Indent doesn’t force any formatting rules—it simply brings visual peace to your editor.

🔧 Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

  • zenIndent.enable: Enable/disable this extension.
  • zenIndent.indentSize: Set the visual width of indentation. Default is 4 spaces.

You can also configure indentation size per language by setting specific values in zenIndent.indentSize. For example:

"zenIndent.indentSize": {
	"javascript": 2,
	"python": 4
