Thank you very much for your feedback!

I absolutely agree with you! This is one of the main reasons why I created SuperSettings.

I am aware of EditorConfig and I think the greatest strength of it is the ability to configure different editors with one cross-editor configuration file. However, it's greatest strength is also a weakness since it handles, like you correctly said, only general style settings. For example, an important thing for me was the ability to configure the rulers in Sublime Text, which EditorConfig can't do. SuperSettings allows you to configure any Sublime Text setting, so you can, for example, have different color themes for different folders.

Doesn't Sublime Text already support this on a per-project basis, i.e. the "settings"-section in ´.sublime-project´ files?
Not fully, you cannot configure syntax specific settings (settings for different markup/programming language files) in ".sublime-project" files, only globally. Also, for ".sublime-project" files to work, you need to add the project to Sublime Text's project list. I wanted something more flexible...
