When developing in medium to larger teams, becomes more important to be able to automatically maintain code styling throughout the project to maintain readability and clarity. This rule also applies to smaller projects as well, abiet at times easier to manage ("New guy, please remove the 5 blank lines in a row in the method. And the blank spaces after the statements.").

Below is a quick snip for configuring VSCode to automagically take care of this every time you press save (Ctrl+S). The following assumes you already have a project workspace already started in VSCode.

TL;DR Configuration

Key files:

• .vscode/extensions.json
• .vscode/settings.json
