Question 1

What is a tasks.json file in VSCode?

Accepted Answer

A `tasks.json` file, typically located in the `.vscode` folder of a project, is used to configure custom tasks in Visual Studio Code. These tasks can automate repetitive operations like building your project, running scripts, or linting files. You can run these tasks directly from VSCode.
