Plugin does not respect user tab settings

Not to start a tabbing war, but I have explicitly set these settings, and they are ignored when formatting.

{
  "editor.insertSpaces": false,
  "editor.tabSize": 4
}

Marvellous, Thank you for these suggestions and the link to the docs. They are super informative.

I’ve fixed my issues using the default formatter value vscode.typescript-language-features like you suggested, but only for javascript and typescript.

I decided to dig into this just now. You have control over which formatter is used for different filetypes in VS Code. There is information about how to customize this behavior and other language-specific behaviors at the VS Code docs > Get Started > Settings > Language specific editor settings.

When editing your settings.json file, intellisense will help you find the valid keys and values, but these are likely the settings that you want:

{
  "[javascript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.typescript-language-features"
  },
  "[javascriptreact]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.typescript-language-features"
  },
  "[typescript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.typescript-language-features"
  },
  "[typescriptreact]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.typescript-language-features"
  },
}

If you use those settings, VS Code will use the built-in formatter instead of the one provided by the Deno extension, when editing .js, .jsx, .ts, .tsx files.

If you are uncomfortable editing your settings.json file, you can use the command palette to change the default formatter while editing a document of that type. Here is an example while I was editing a TypeScript document:
