How to make VS Code to treat other file extensions as certain language?

Question

Or is there a way to switch the current file\'s language to use syntax highlight feature?

For example, *.jsx actually uses JavaScript but VS Code doesn\

Answer 1

eg:

// .vscode/settings.json in workspace

{
  "files.associations": {
    "*Container.js": "javascriptreact",
    "**/components/*/*.js": "javascriptreact",
    "**/config/routes.js": "javascriptreact"
  }
}

Answer 2

In Visual Studio Code, you can add persistent file associations for language highlighting to your settings.json file like this:

// Place your settings in this file to overwrite the default settings
{
  "some_setting": custom_value,
  ...

  "files.associations": {
    "*.thor": "ruby",
    "*.jsx": "javascript",
    "Jenkinsfile*": "groovy"
  }
}

You can use Ctrl+Shift+p and then type settings JSON. Choose Preferences: Open Settings (JSON) to open your settings.json.

The Files: Associations feature was first introduced in Visual Studio Code version 1.0 (March 2016). Check the available wildcard patterns in the release notes and the known language strings in the documentation.

This works for me.

{
"files.associations": {"*.bitesize": "yaml"}
 }
