I love how VS Code has no problem working with large and even minified files (unlike some other “modern” editors). Every update is just icing on the cake.

Keep up the good work!




I had to tweak a minified CSS file for a client project the other day, and granted, VS Code opened the file faster and auto wrapped the output (Atom took a while and showed the file as one long 70000 character single line).

However, I noted that VS Code lost all syntax highlighting and displayed everything as a uniform grey text, making it harder to find what I was looking for. Atom retained the CSS syntax highlighting.

I also have a plugin for Atom to 'prettify' the CSS and basically un-minify it. Anyone recommend a similar plugin for VS Code that can do the same?


What was the language mode set to? Look at the bottom right, or use ctrl + k, m to open the dialog.


> minified files

Did not know this. Are you telling me it un-minifies it to make it a bit more readable?


No, but it doesn't choke like other editors do.
