无需安装扩展，能否在Visual Studio Code中完成代码（含HTML）缩进？

Hey there! I know you've spent hours tinkering with AutoHotKey and are wondering if you can skip extensions like Beautify for indentation—good news: VS Code has fully built-in tools to handle this, no extra installs required.

Here's how to do it, step by step:

1. Quick Manual Formatting #

• Format the entire document: Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + I (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + Shift + I (Mac). You can also go to the top menu bar and select Edit > Format Document.
• Format only selected code: Highlight the section you want to indent, then use the same shortcut above, or choose Edit > Format Selection from the menu. This works perfectly for HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and most other common file types out of the box.

2. Auto-Format on Save (Set It and Forget It) #

If you want to avoid manual formatting entirely, enable auto-formatting when you save:

1. Open VS Code settings with Ctrl + , (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + , (Mac).
2. Search for Format On Save and check the box next to the option.
3. From now on, every time you save your file (Ctrl/Cmd + S), VS Code will automatically indent and clean up your code for you.

3. Customize Indentation Settings (If Needed) #

If you prefer tabs over spaces, or want to adjust the number of spaces per indent, you don't need extensions for that either:

• Open settings (Ctrl/Cmd + ,).
• Search for Tab Size to set how many spaces (or tab width) you want per indent (e.g., 2 or 4).
• Search for Insert Spaces to toggle between using spaces or actual tab characters for indentation.

You can totally skip the AutoHotKey setup for this—VS Code's native tools are designed specifically for code formatting and will work far more reliably for your HTML and other file indentation needs.
