In VSCode, open your settings.json (Control+Shift+P, enter 'open settings json', hit enter), and paste this in to enable bracket pair colorization.

py

  "editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": true,
  "editor.guides.bracketPairs":"active",

Find this useful? I have more VSCode sensible defaults here

This is a part of a series of quick defaults to make your life easier, based on how we show up in search results.

While you're in there, add autosaving too. It's handy.

py

"files.autoSave": "afterDelay",
"files.autoSaveDelay": 10000,

Happy coding!
