FAQ

EditorConfig is a standard file format that defines coding style rules. IDEs and editors like VS Code, JetBrains, Sublime, and Vim support it natively or via plugins. It ensures consistent indentation, line endings, and charset across your team.

Place .editorconfig in your project root directory. Editors will automatically detect it. You can also have nested .editorconfig files in subdirectories to override settings for specific folders.

VS Code, IntelliJ/WebStorm, Sublime Text, Atom, Vim, Emacs, and most modern editors either natively support EditorConfig or have plugins. The format is editor-agnostic — one .editorconfig file works across all supported editors.

Yes. Place a root .editorconfig with global defaults, then nest additional files in subdirectories. Settings cascade — closer files override parent ones. Use root = true in the top-level file to prevent the editor from searching parent directories for additional .editorconfig files.

The base generator creates a [*] root rule that applies to all files. For per-language rules, add sections like [*.js] or [*.py] with override values. The generated file gives you a great starting point to extend.
