Stack Overflow Indentation++ Firefox

Stack Overflow Indentation++

By: Nathan
Enables rich IDE-like tabbing/shift-tabbing indentation on Stack Overflow and Meta Stack Overflow, with a toolbar action to change number of spaces inserted and appearance.

Features & Capabilities

An Add-on that enables rich IDE-like tabbing and tab-shifting when editing questions/answers in Stack Overflow and Meta Stack Overflow.

It uses spaces (not tab characters) when you tab, and defaults to 4 spaces. It also adds a pretty gradient border to the text area.

Click on the extension in your toolbar to open up the settings, where you can change the spaces-per-tab, disable the border gradient, and disable the whole extension temporarily if you'd like.

Is Stack Overflow Indentation++ Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Stack Overflow Indentation++ requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Stack Overflow Indentation++ is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
