This mode is used for the VS Code configuration files such as settings.json, tasks.json, or launch.json. In addition to the default JSON mode following the JSON specification, VS Code also has a JSON with Comments (jsonc) mode. Folding regions are available for all object and array elements. You can fold regions of source code using the folding icons on the gutter between line numbers and line start. You can format your JSON document using ⇧⌥F (Windows Shift+Alt+F, Linux Ctrl+Shift+I) or Format Document from the context menu. When you hover over properties and values for JSON data with or without schema, we will provide additional context. JSON files can get large and we support quick navigation to properties using the Go to Symbol command ( ⇧⌘O (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+O)). We also offer IntelliSense for specific value sets such as package and project dependencies in package.json, project.json, and bower.json.
