Tab to Space Converter — Unify Your Indentation Style
When different teams use different conventions, mixed tabs and spaces in code lead to messy diffs and broken alignment. This tool recognizes only the indentation at the start of each line and accurately converts tabs to spaces, or spaces to tabs.
Tabs or spaces inside strings or code content are left completely untouched, so your code's actual behavior is never affected. When converting spaces to tabs, only full groups of your chosen width become a tab — any remaining spaces stay as spaces.
