How setting VSCODE on HTML

Question

In VSCODE, how do I delete the closing </> in the html but the parent <> doesn't get deleted too?

<div> <!-- 2. which even followed was deleted-->
<p>TEXT</p>
<p>TEXT</p>
<p>TEXT</p>
</div> <!-- 1. This is what you want to delete-->

Please help.

Open Visual Studio Code, go to File -> Preferences -> Settings or use the shortcut ctrl + , to open the settings.

Search for the setting Auto Closing Tags. Uncheck HTML: Auto Closing Tags.

These search results allow you to disable auto closing for JavaScript and TypeScript if desired.
