How can I make my vscode fonts slanted like sublime?

According to the VS Code documentation , you can customize theme colors using rules in editor.tokenColorCustomizationsuser settings :

1. First open yours settings.jsonand add the following rules (replace with YOUR THEME NAME HEREthe name of your color theme):

   "editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
      "[YOUR THEME NAME HERE]": {
         "textMateRules": []
      }
   }
   

2. Open the Python file of your choice. Then, open Command Palette Ctrl++ Shiftand Prun "Development: Check Edit Tokens and Scopes"

3. Click the keyword you want to italicize. For example, we click on classa keyword to see its TextMate scope. Copy the highlighted first TextMate range ID:

   

4. Back to yours settings.json. Inside the textMateRulesarray, insert a new object whose scopeproperty is the TextMate range ID you just copied.

   "editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
      "[YOUR THEME NAME HERE]": {
         "textMateRules": [
           {
             "scope": "storage.type.class.python",
             "settings": {
               "fontStyle": "italic"
             }
           }
         ]
      }
   }
   

5. Save yours settings.jsonand you should see the keyboard classin italics

   

Notice

You can append more objects to the textMateRulesarray to italicize the font for more keywords. E.g:

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
  "[YOUR THEME NAME HERE]": {
    "textMateRules": [
      {
        "scope": "variable.parameter.function.language.special.self.python",
        "settings": {
          "fontStyle": "italic"
        }
      },
      {
        "scope": "storage.type.class.python",
        "settings": {
          "fontStyle": "italic"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
},
