I was watching a video that which had a visual help to know what's inside of curly braces:

within curly braces

does anyone know how to activate this?

I don't know exactly how to search it. I couldn't find it in the settings. Or is it an extension?

If this is actually Visual Studio Code and not Visual Studio, this is the editor.guides.bracketPairs setting. You can add

"editor.guides.bracketPairs": true

to your settings.json, or if you only want the guide for the current line,

"editor.guides.bracketPairs": "active"
