📦 Installation

1. Install from VS Code Marketplace
2. Open the CECS sidebar (icon in activity bar)
3. Connect a storage provider (GitHub Gist or Local File)
4. Start syncing!

🎯 Quick Start

GitHub Gist Setup

1. Click "Quick Connect with GitHub" in the CECS sidebar
2. Authorize the extension
3. Done! Your settings are now backed up to a private Gist

Local File Setup

1. Click "Confirm Location" in the CECS sidebar
2. Choose a backup location (or use default: ~/.cecs/config.json)
3. Done! Your settings are saved locally

🔄 Usage

Auto-Sync (Recommended)

Enable automatic background sync when settings change:

"cecs.autoSync": true

Manual Sync

• Push: Backup your current settings to all connected providers
• Pull: Restore settings from your backup (overwrites current settings!)
• Full Sync: Intelligent 2-way synchronization

🎨 Multi-Profile Support

All your VS Code profiles are automatically detected and synced:

• ⭐ Default profile
• 📁 All custom profiles (Work, Personal, etc.)

How it works:

• Push from any profile → All profiles backed up
• Pull to new machine → All profiles restored
• No manual configuration needed!

🔌 Automatic Extension Installation

Missing extensions? No problem!

When you pull settings, CECS automatically:

1. Detects missing extensions
2. Shows installation progress
3. Installs all extensions with one click
4. Prompts to reload

Disable if you prefer manual installation:

"cecs.autoInstallExtensions": false

⚙️ Configuration

"cecs.autoSync": false  // Default: false

Auto-Install Extensions

"cecs.autoInstallExtensions": true  // Default: true

Custom User Data Directory

"cecs.customUserDataDir": "/path/to/your/User"

Custom Local Backup Path

"cecs.localBackupPath": "/path/to/backup/folder"

🎨 Modern UI

The sidebar features:

• Glassmorphism design with smooth animations
• Real-time sync status indicator

🔒 Privacy & Security

• GitHub Gist backups are private by default

🐛 Known Issues
