When I develop Python with Visual Studio Code, I run it from a virtual environment. I have auto-formatting enabled, so whenever I save a file, it will automatically be formatted with the formatter which is installed in my virtual environment.
I don't know if the same is possible if your virtual environment is in WSL and your VS Code is in Windows.
- amanzi 8y agoThere are some integration issues between VS Code on Windows and WSL. (there are currently 29 open issues on Github for this.)
