Format and Re-Indent Your Code Automatically in VS Code

VS Code’s re-indent shortcut quickly formats your entire file, fixing indentation and applying formatting rules based on your settings or formatter.

What it does

• Re-indents the entire document
• Applies formatting rules (from settings, Prettier, etc.)

Before using it

• editor.tabSize and editor.insertSpaces are set correctly
  • tabSize 2
  • insertSpaces true
• Your formatter is installed and configured properly

Format on save

To automatically format your code every time you save, add this to your settings.json:

{
  "editor.formatOnSave": true
}

Then just save to re-indent and format automatically.
