Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Losing intentional indentation

Solution: Normalize-spacing affects all whitespace. For code, use a code formatter that respects indentation instead.

⚠️

Not handling leading/trailing spaces

Solution: This tool normalizes between words. Use trim tool separately to remove leading/trailing whitespace.

⚠️

Expecting newlines to be affected

Solution: Newlines are typically preserved. Use separate tools if you need to normalize line breaks too.
