I got stuck yesterday when I was trying to change the settings.jsonin Visual Studio Code becuase of not understanding there are different ways for different situations.
- Visual Studio Code Settings Json
- Settings Visual Studio Code Font
- Visual Studio Code Project Settings
- Visual Studio Code Settings Sync
Visual Studio Code Settings Json
As I figured out, there are three ways to edit settings.json
- in User Preferences (Global)
- in Folder
- in Workspace
- Previously known as Visual Studio Code Settings Sync. While being free and open source, if you find it useful, please consider supporting it by donating via PayPal or Open Collective.

in User Preferences (Global)
You can change the settings.json from your user preferences. This changes are global. Mac computer products. Therefore it will affect all of your projects. Here are 2 ways to reach that globalsettings.json file.
Best of all, Visual Studio Code on the Raspberry Pi is officially supported by the development team. This official support means the software should continue to receive updates and function well on the device. Visual Studio Code is our favorite code editor both on the Raspberry Pi and off it. It is easy to configure Visual Studio Code to your liking through its various settings. Nearly every part of VS Code's editor, user interface, and functional behavior has options you can modify. VS Code provides two different scopes for settings: User Settings - Settings that apply globally to any instance of VS Code.
Settings Visual Studio Code Font
- File -> Preferences -> Settings -> Extensions -> Scroll down and find 'Edit in settings.json'
- Or in these paths in your OS
- Windows %APPDATA%CodeUsersettings.json
- macOS $HOME/Library/Application Support/Code/User/settings.json
- Linux $HOME/.config/Code/User/settings.json
You can add the settings to this file (may be given by a extension) and make all of these settings global. Best free mac app store games.
in Folder
If you have opened a folder (File -> Open Folder), here's the way to add settings.json in the folder. This will affect only the current folder
- Create a folder named .vscode in the root folder
- Create a file named settings.json in that folder and add your settings there.
in Workspace
If you have opened a workspace (File -> Open Workspace to open or saved using File -> Save Workspace As..), here are the steps to changesettings of the workspace. Note that in this way, you don't have a settings.json. But, you can do everything done by itin another way.
- When you save the workspace, it creates a file called yourworkspace.code-workspace
- Open that file in Visual Studio Code. Then you will see something like this.
- You can add the settings by adding a key named 'settings' in JSON.

When you add settings into yourwokspace.code-workspace file, the settings will only be available for the current workspace.
