indent-o-matic
A simple, fast indentation detection plugin for Neovim that finds the first standard indentation pattern in a file.
What is indent-o-matic?
Indent-o-matic is a Neovim plugin written in Lua that automatically detects indentation settings in code files. It solves the problem of inconsistent indentation detection by using a simple, fast algorithm that finds the first standard indentation pattern (tabs or 2/4/8 spaces) in a file.
Neovim users who work with multiple codebases or files with varying indentation styles and want automatic, predictable indentation detection without complex configuration.
Developers choose indent-o-matic for its simplicity and speed—it uses a straightforward "dumb" detection approach that's fast, predictable, and easy to understand compared to more complex statistical detection plugins.
