Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 4,646 PointsBracket Pair Colorization extension is deprecated and is now part of VS Code natively
This is not a question, but if you follow along with the video you might notice that the Bracket Pair Colorization extension has been deprecated by the creator. See this article from VS Code for a detailed technical discussion on why they decided to convert the extension to native functionality.
Anyways, instead of installing the extension, you can enable Bracket colors in the settings of VSCode. On a Mac, open settings CMD+, and search for "Bracket Pair Colorization" and make sure to check the box to enable it.
Alternatively you can edit your settings.json file and add the following: "editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": true

Web Development Techdegree Student 687 PointsI am not sure where to add the code snippet you provided, once in the settings.json file. I'm not familiar with javascript yet, so I need some direction.
