ADCode

Bracket pair colorization

Brackets get colours. The one that opens and the one that closes are the same colour, so you can see which goes with which.

When you would want it

When code is nested several layers deep, finding the bracket that closes the one you are looking at means counting. Colour turns counting into looking.

Where to find it

  • All Features → Bracket pair colorization
  • Settings → adcode.editing.bracketPairColorization

How to use it, step by step

  1. Nothing to do - it is on.
  2. Turn it off if you find the colours noisy.

Why this beats the usual way

Other editors give you this through a stack of extensions that each need installing, updating, and reconciling with each other - and half of them reset when a colleague opens the project. ADCode ships these behaviours in the box, on by default, identical on every machine that opens your folder, and each one is a single switch away if you disagree.
