The Python extension now supports using it as a formatter. Black has a single opinion about how Python code should be formatted, allowing you to easily achieve consistency across your codebase. Support for Black Formatterīlack is a new code formatting tool for Python that was first released in March and has quickly gained popularity. In this release we have closed a total of 103 issues including support for the new and popular formatter Black, improvements to the experimental debugger and formatting as you type. You can learn more about Python support in Visual Studio Code in the VS Code documentation. You can download the Python extension from the marketplace, or install it directly from the extension gallery in Visual Studio Code. We are pleased to announce that the May 2018 release of the Python Extension for Visual Studio Code is now available from the marketplace and the gallery.
