One of the things that doesn't favor a project's popularity on GitHub is too many files in the project root. Often in fact to get to the README.md you have to scroll through a long list of files, obviously always useful but, I think being able to streamline it is very useful.
In this sense I thought that removing the .editorconfig file and downloading it only when needed, ie at the beginning of a development or debugging session.
With this purpose I have created this repository I hope it will be useful for all of you.
