💻 Usage

Simply import the function and use it!

`ts
import { dedent } from 'dedented';

const value = dedentLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit. Curabitur ac est imperdiet,
ullamcorper ex eu, dapibus felis. Quisque
vitae leo non arcu viverra tristique id vitae
nibh.

* Suspendisse condimentum volutpat condimentum.
* Interdum et malesuada fames ac ante ipsum primis in faucibus.
* Nullam posuere accumsan ipsum a rutrum.

Etiam imperdiet justo eu commodo varius. Quisque pharetra

console.log(value)
`

You'll see that value evaluates to the same text you entered, but with any leading indentation stripped from each line:

`text
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit. Curabitur ac est imperdiet,
ullamcorper ex eu, dapibus felis. Quisque
vitae leo non arcu viverra tristique id vitae
nibh.

* Suspendisse condimentum volutpat condimentum.
* Interdum et malesuada fames ac ante ipsum primis in faucibus.
* Nullam posuere accumsan ipsum a rutrum.

Etiam imperdiet justo eu commodo varius. Quisque pharetra
aliquam vulputate.
