Let’s take a look at the settings.
Goto File, then preferences, then settings

The way that it is basically, one big JSON file. It has key value pairs. The key is the option or settings and on the right side is the value for it.

And there are different categories that you can choose from, Commonly used, Files, etc.

It will open with two window, left side is default settings and right side is custom user settings.

If you want to customize any of the key value pair, you have copy and paste it on the right side and then change the value you need.



Change the editor font size and terminal font size using:
“editor.fontSize”: 20,
