Like other code editors and IDEs, VS Code allows you to indent your code automatically. + +You can set tabs or spaces or whatever you prefer for the indentation. + +Sounds good? Let’s see how to do it. + +### Enable automatic indent in VS Code + +There are multiple ways you can achieve this. In this guide, I will show you three ways to indent your code in visual studio code automatically. + +#### Method 1: Configuring global user settings + +You can access the global user settings via the command pallet. Use `Ctrl + Shift + P` to open the command pallet and search for `Open User Settings` and hit enter: + +![access user setting from command pallet in vscode][1] + +It will open up the settings. From there, you will have to search for `Auto Indent` and choose **Full** as an indent option in **Editor: Auto Indent**: + +![enable auto indent from global user settings in vscode][2] + +And the automatic indent is enabled and applied to every opened file in VSCode. + +#### Method 2: Using linter or formatter for automatic indent in VS Code + +In this method, you will be required to add extensions such as a code formatter or linter to have the desired results. + +Linters will identify the errors in code, whereas formatters will only format your code to make it more readable. You can search for code formatters in the [VSCode marketplace][3] specific to your programming language. + +And here are some of my favorite code formatters and linters for widely popular languages: + +- [C/C++][4]: For C and C++ programming language. +- [PHP][5]: For PHP. +- [markdownlint][6]: For markdown files. +- [Python][7]: For Python programming language. +- [ESLint][8]: For JSON and javascript. +- [Beautify][9]: For javascript, JSON, CSS, Sass, and HTML. + +Once you are done adding a formatter for your preferred programming language, you can press `Ctrl _ Shift + I` to format the code. + +Similarly, you can use do the same using the command pallet. Press `Ctrl + Shift + P` to and search for **Format document**, and hit enter. + +![indent code in VSCode][10] + +#### Method 3: Enable auto indent while saving the file + +VSCode allows you to format your code while saving it with a little tweak. Let me show you how. + +Press `Ctrl + ,` and it will open the user settings prompt. From there, search for **Format On Save**: + +![enable format on save option][11] + + And from now on, your files will add an indent automatically when you save them. + +### Wrapping Up + +In this guide, I explained how you can add an indent automatically in VSCode. I would recommend using the second method for better flexibility. + +I hope you will find this guide helpful and if you have any queries or suggestions, let me know in the comments. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://itsfoss.com/auto-indent-vs-code/ + +作者：[Sagar Sharma][a] +选题：[lkxed][b] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://itsfoss.com/author/sagar/ +[b]: https://github.com/lkxed +[1]: https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/access-user-setting-from-command-pallet-in-vscode.png +[2]: https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/enable-auto-indent-from-global-user-settings-in-vscode.png +[3]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/vscode +[4]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cpptools +[5]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DEVSENSE.phptools-vscode +[6]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DavidAnson.vscode-markdownlint +[7]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python +[8]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=dbaeumer.vscode-eslint +[9]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=HookyQR.beautify +[10]: https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/format-document-.gif +[11]: https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/enable-format-on-save-option.png
