In html file, if I save file with

<br>

it turns into...

<br />

I just want first one without slash and space, how can I do it? (I use Prettier if that's the reason)

prettier visual-studio-code tags html

Found the solution, Prettier was the problem. What I wanted is to
get rid of unnecessary slashes in HTML files, but leave auto formatting on other files like js, python...

What I did was...

  1. Go to setting (cmd + ,)
  2. search prettier
  3. on Disable Languages section add "html" (without double quote)

problem solved!

The desired functionality seems no longer to be supported by the "Prettier" plugin for VS Code. To use VS Code formatting for html on saving a file, add

"editor.formatOnSave": true,
"[html]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "vscode.html-language-features"
}

to your settings.json. For a more detailed discussion see here.
