I have been trying to find a proper way to highlight React Code in '.js' files so that it is easier to read in Visual Studio Code. The photo below shows a sample file of how a lot of it is in one color, making it hard to read.
I tried using "jsx" extension by TwentyChung and "react-beautify", but neither of them worked. Can someone please assist? :-)
JSX highlighting works out of the box in VS code and JSX files are already associated with JavaScript React language mode. If you want to enable JSX syntax coloring in .js files click on the language name in the status bar and select JavaScript React language mode. You can also associate .js files with JavaScript React if you don't want to do this every time. Make sure you have the latest version of VS Code.
Change the VS CODE color theme to Dark+ and change the language in bottom status bar to java script react. This worked for me
For Me Here is what worked
https://code.visualstudio.com/download
2.Open Vscode click extension and search this extension
Javascript Atom Gramar
Just disable the extension.
3.Close and open vscode, now u should see colors in your jsx code.
Hope this will help some one in future
