I would like to format my HTML with a command, as I do in Visual Studio, using Ctrl+K+D. Is this possible in Atom? If not, are there other options?

Atom does not have a built-in command for formatting html. However, you can install the atom-beautify package to get this behavior.

  1. Press CTRL + SHFT + P to bring up the command palette (CMD + SHFT + P on a Mac).
  2. Type Install Packages to bring up the package manager.
  3. Type beautify into the search box.
  4. Choose atom-beautify or one of the other packages and click Install.
  5. Now you can use the default keybinding for atom-beautify CTRL + ALT + B to beautify your HTML (CTRL + OPTION + B on a Mac).
