## What it is
An IntelliJ platform plugin that colorizes matching brackets, parentheses, and indent guidelines in rainbow colors to improve code readability. It supports IntelliJ-based IDEs, Android Studio, HUAWEI DevEco Studio, and Fleet across many languages.

## Use cases
- colorize nested brackets in intellij
- make deeply nested code easier to read
- highlight matching parentheses in java or kotlin
- rainbow indent guidelines in android studio
- find matching brace in scala or clojure code

## When to choose
- you use IntelliJ-based IDEs, Android Studio, DevEco Studio, or Fleet and struggle with nested brackets
- you want scope highlighting and indent guidelines inside your IDE

## When to avoid
- you use VS Code or another non-JetBrains editor
- you prefer a minimal editor without syntax colorization plugins
