Strip leading whitespace from each line in a string

The line with the least number of leading whitespace, ignoring empty lines, determines the number to remove.

Useful for removing redundant indentation.

$ npm install strip-indent

import stripIndent from 'strip-indent';

const string = '\tunicorn\n\t\tcake';
/*
	unicorn
		cake
*/

stripIndent(string);
/*
unicorn
	cake
*/
