With your example of a nested list, VSCode will correctly display line-wrapped inner items at the same indentation level.



Do you use VSCode to read your emails and edit Wikipedia?

Will it do this for Markdown inside of comments in C/C++/Rust code?

How does it even know you're using Markdown in comments as opposed to something else?

I mean, there are definitely places where hard wrapping makes sense or is the only option. I’m not saying it’s never the right thing to do, just that with emails or full-Markdown docs specifically it tends to restrict the ability to render in an optimal manner more than it helps.

You don't need a Windows machine or Visual Studio license to use VS Code, which is both cross-platform and free.
