What is Editor Config

EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs. The EditorConfig project consists of a file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined styles. EditorConfig files are easily readable and they work nicely with version control systems. Find out more at editorconfig.org and the Visual Studio Docs.

How do I use It?

All you have to do is drop it into the root of your project. Then any time you open a file in Visual Studio, the .editorconfig file settings will be used to help format the document and also raise warnings if your code style and formatting does not conform. For Visual Studio Code, you can install the EditorConfig for VS Code extension to get support.
