How to change indentation in Visual Studio Code?

Question

For every typescript file visual studio code uses an auto indentation of 8 spaces. This is a bit too much for my taste but I can\'t find where to change it.

Answer 1

You can change this in global User level or Workspace level.

Open the settings: Using the shortcut Ctrl , or clicking File > Preferences > Settings as shown below.

Then, do the following 2 changes: (type tabSize in the search bar)

1. Uncheck the checkbox of Detect Indentation
2. Change the tab size to be 2/4 (Although I strongly think 2 is correct for JS :))
