I found this file .prettierrc inside a project. I would like to know how to generate it from visual studio code. Or I just create a new file named .prettierrc?
I tried to find something on internet but i am still confused

Here is the documentation.
If you go to the package.json file in your project, you probably will see that prettier is listed on the devDependencies.
As you can see in the documentation, you'll have to install it within your node project with:
npm install --save-dev --save-exact prettier
and then create the file manually with:
echo {}> .prettierrc.json
After that, you just need to configure it with your preferences. Check this examples.
Keep in mind that one common usage of prettier, is using it integrated it with linters. Check this documentation as well.
in terminal type
npm install prettier
then type
type nul > .prettier
to create its configuration file if it doesn't work just remove the space between > and .
