JSON editing in Visual Studio 2013 – tip!

Just installed VS2013 on a clean Windows 10 virtual machine, noticed I wasn’t getting the same JSON editing experience I had on my previous VS2013 installation. The colour coding and auto-completion features were missing.

Solved the problem by modifying the installation and including the Microsoft Web Developer Tools:

W10_Dev

Now the editor uses colour coding, auto-completes the various brackets, and highlights errors.
