Indent guides

Faint vertical lines show how far in each line is pushed.

When you would want it

In languages where indentation decides what belongs to what - Python especially - the lines are the difference between reading the structure and guessing it.

How to use it, step by step

On by default.

  1. The guide for the block your cursor is in is brighter than the rest.

Why this beats the usual way

Other editors give you this through a stack of extensions that each need installing, updating, and reconciling with each other - and half of them reset when a colleague opens the project. ADCode ships these behaviours in the box, on by default, identical on every machine that opens your folder, and each one is a single switch away if you disagree.
