I'm using Visual Studio Code and the prettier plugin for it, version 5.8.0. In the extension settings of prettier I configured a tab width of 12. I also configured a tab width of 12 in a .prettierrc.json file:
{
"useTabs": true,
"tabWidth": 12,
}
The editor tab size of Visual Studio Code is set to 4. When I now create a new file and format it (auto save and auto format on save is enabled and default formatter is set to 'esbenp.prettier-vscode) then it's not indented by 12, but by 4. So my prettier settings are worthless.
Why? What did I wrong?
