Walkthrough

A new EditorConfig file is introduced to establish universal and file-type-specific coding standards across the repository, including character encoding, line endings, indentation, and whitespace trimming rules for multiple file types.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
EditorConfig Configuration .editorconfig	Adds universal formatting rules (UTF-8, LF, 2-space indentation, trim whitespace, final newline) with file-type-specific settings for Markdown, YAML, JSON, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Java, C/C++, shell scripts, Makefiles, config files, XML/HTML, CSS/SCSS/LESS, and package manager files.

Poem

🐰 A config file hops along,
With spaces, newlines, all so strong,
UTF-8 and LF's gleam,
Consistency is now our dream! ✨

🧹 Nitpick | 🔵 Trivial

Consider removing redundant settings for maintainability.

Several file-type sections repeat settings already defined in the universal [*] section:

• Entirely redundant sections (both indent_size = 2 and indent_style = space are universal defaults):

  • YAML (lines 22-25)
  • JSON (lines 27-30)
  • JavaScript/TypeScript (lines 32-35)
  • Shell scripts (lines 52-55)
  • Config files (lines 64-67)
  • XML/HTML (lines 69-72)
  • CSS/SCSS/LESS (lines 74-77)
  • Package manager files (lines 79-82)

• Partially redundant (indent_style = space is already universal):

  • Python (line 40)
  • Java (line 45)
  • C/C++ (line 50)
  • Gradle (line 86)

Removing redundant settings would make the file more maintainable and easier to scan. Only settings that differ from universal defaults need to be specified.
