Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video I will show you how to
0:04
enable or disable bracket colorizer
0:07
inside VS code. So typically in VS code
0:10
every bracket that you open like this
0:13
one is given unique colors right here.
0:16
So that to differentiate between
0:18
different snippets of code here you can
0:20
see this one has yellow color, this one
0:22
has purple color. So now if your code
0:25
editor hasn't have this feature, if you
0:28
want to enable bracket colorizer, it's
0:30
very simple. You go to the settings
0:32
option and right here you in the search
0:35
bar, you simply search for bracket.
0:38
Simply write bracket in the search bar
0:40
and uh you will see this setting right
0:43
here. Bracket pair colorizing.
0:48
So if this option is not ticked simply
0:50
tick this option
0:53
and uh after that
0:57
this bracket pairs horizontal makes it
1:00
to active. Change this to active
1:04
and this one also to active. Bracket
1:07
players
1:10
also change this to active. So these are
1:12
the three controls you need to do.
1:14
Simply first of all check mark this
1:16
option. Secondly, make this both these
1:18
two active active.
1:21
If still you are seeing your bracket
1:23
colorizer is not working, then you need
1:25
to go to the settings option preferences
1:28
settings. Go in the command pallet. Just
1:31
go into the settings and just type this
1:34
editor
1:37
dotg guides dot bracket pairs and just
1:40
toggle this to true. So it will actually
1:44
turn on the bracket colorizer. So if you
1:46
now
1:51
you will see it will give unique colors
1:53
to your brackets.
2:02
So if you want to now disable it, it's
2:05
very simple. Change this from true to
2:08
false. And now your bracket pair
2:11
colorizer is disabled. Now if you see
2:19
again you need to first of all untick
2:22
this option. So if you untick this
2:24
option
2:26
again change to false here and now you
2:30
will see no more bracket colorizer is
2:33
there. So in this way you can toggle
2:35
this setting very simply. Uh so please
