How to open brace on new line by default for C# or any language in vs code?

I want this by default:

if(condition)
{
    code here;
}

if(condition)
{
    code here;
}

Instead of:

if(condition){
    code here;
}

if(condition){
    code here;
}

Try an .editorconfig file https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/fundamentals/code-analysis/style-rules/csharp-formatting-options#new-line-options

[*.cs]
csharp_new_line_before_open_brace = all

[*.cs]
csharp_new_line_before_open_brace = all

I don't think VSCode has such a feature. You need to get used to Enter Brace Enter

Yeah, I'll just do this for now. I do see some extensions for .editorconfig in VS Code. Might try them some day.

i don't believe an editorconfig will place braces on a new line while typing. i could see it doing so when formatting the file (ideally with formatOnSave turned on)
