Sizer

See the size of any file right in the VS Code status bar — no need to leave your editor.

Sizer in action

Features

Shows file size in the status bar as you switch between files
Smart formatting — automatically picks B, KB, MB, or GB
Updates on file save so the size always reflects what's on disk
Works with every file type
Lightweight — reads file metadata on demand, no background overhead

Getting Started

Install Sizer from the VS Code Marketplace
Open any file — the size appears in the bottom-right status bar

That's it. No configuration needed.

Settings

Setting	Default	Options
`sizer.showSize`	`true`	Show or hide the file size display
`sizer.sizeFormat`	`auto`	`auto` (B/KB/MB/GB) or `bytes` (raw byte count)

Open Settings (Cmd+, / Ctrl+,) and search for Sizer to configure.

Commands

Command	Description
`Sizer: Refresh`	Manually refresh the displayed file size

Access via the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P).

Troubleshooting

Size not showing? Make sure a file is open — the indicator hides when no file is active. Check that sizer.showSize is enabled, or try reloading the window.

Size not updating after edits? The size updates on save. Unsaved changes won't be reflected until the file is written to disk.
