Why veil.nvim?

Ever been streaming or screen sharing and accidentally exposed your API keys? **veil.nvim** automatically conceals sensitive values in your config files, so you can code without worry.

Unlike other plugins that rely on complex regex patterns, **veil.nvim** uses simple, predictable patterns that just work with standard configuration file formats.
