The permissions this addon ask for are incredibly terrifying seeing that sharing confidential information in such Docs would breach many a workplace NDA for example. Otherwise.... Functionally its perfect!

Doesn't preserve indentation, which is essential. This alone renders this otherwise nice add-on useless.

Would have loved to have used this but because it puts the code into a table I can't paste it into the program I'm using at the other end. Would be great if that was a setting I could turn off.

Not what I expected. This extension formats a selection of text so that it looks like code. It doesn't create a real code block that you can type like code and edit (like Markdown codeblock, etc.). As I edit, my code gets auto-corrected and tab key will jump out of the codeblock. I don't think it's any better than writing a code in an IDE and then copying/pasting it (with formatting preserved).

Does what it says on the tin. Works for C, C++, C#, Python, Java, etc. etc. etc. The only thing it's missing is Assembly. Somehow the "auto" setting sets up assembly (mostly) correctly, but I can't find an "asm" or "masm" setting.

Great for writing technical documents. Would love to see JSX/TSX support in the future!

I wrote some test bash/shell and it is capitalizing the first letter of my line of code. Also it seems to get rid of empty lines?
