Focus on your code, not your settings.

Simple - The Distraction-Free Code Editor Chrome Extension

"Simple" is a free and open-source code editor designed as a Chrome extension. This lightweight editor encourages you to focus on your coding, without having to worry about complex settings. It uses intuitive keyboard shortcuts and an automatic tab indentation system. What sets Simple apart is the fixed indentation setup (defaulting to 4 spaces). It also offers features like autosave and autocomplete to help speed up your coding process. Moreover, Simple is styled in the sleek IBM Plex Mono font.
