California Code Formatter

Reformats the California legal codes into something more readable.
The official California legal code website (https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes.xhtml) is difficult to read because of its extensive use of structured headings and disdain for indentation.

This extension applies reasonable levels of indentation for each heading type in order to make the codes more readable. Due to indeterminate cases and inconsistencies in the heading system used by the California legal code, the formatter will not be 100% correct. However, in most cases, the indentation will reflect the intended structure of the law.

An in-depth explanation of the formatting logic, as well as the open-source code, can be found at https://github.com/stevenrchun/CalCodeFormatter

Bad, unreadable, a veritable paper tax on the citizens of California who wish to read the law! Beautiful, amazing, a shining beacon of slightly more accessible democracy!
